Get Started with Intel® oneAPI Deep Neural Network Library

The Intel® oneAPI Deep Neural Network Library (oneDNN) is a performance library for deep learning applications. The library includes basic building blocks for neural networks optimized for Intel® Architecture Processors and Intel Processor Graphics. oneDNN is intended for deep learning applications and framework developers interested in improving application performance on Intel CPUs and GPUs.

The oneDNN library provides a SYCL* extensions API for CPUs and GPUs.

The full library documentation is available on GitHub and the Intel Developer Zone.

Before You Begin

Examples

Use the following sample projects to become familiar with the Intel® oneAPI Deep Neural Network Library:

Sample Name Description
getting_started

This C++ API example demonstrates the basics of the oneDNN programming model.

sycl_interop_buffer and sycl_interop_usm

This C++ API example demonstrates programming for Intel® Processor Graphics with SYCL extensions API in oneDNN.

Building Examples with the Intel® oneAPI DPC++/C++ Compiler

To setup the oneAPI environment, see the following examples.

Linux

source ${ONEAPI_ROOT}/setvars.sh

# Copy examples to a working directory
cp -R ${DNNLROOT}/examples .
cd examples

# Compile
icpx -fsycl getting_started.cpp -o getting_started -ldnnl

# Run
./getting_started cpu
./getting_started gpu

Windows

%ONEAPI_ROOT%\setvars.bat

# Copy examples to a working directory
xcopy /E "%DNNLROOT%\examples" examples
cd examples

# Compile
icx /EHa -fsycl getting_started.cpp dnnl.lib

# Run
getting_started.exe cpu
getting_started.exe gpu
NOTE:
You may also compile and link with the pkg-config tool.
