title: Writing a Convolutional Neural Network library with CUDA Support
|
|
draft: true

"Just use cuBLAS, it'll be easier. You don't have to implement custom CUDA kernels.", they said. Actually, noone said that. I just thought that because I didn't do enough research.
|
|
|
|
Why not combine multiple challenging things into 1 (C++, cmake, CUDA, CNN)
|
|
|
|
Quickly discovering that without writing custom kernels, you can't really progress
|
|
|
|
- cuBLAS column major layout, macro
|
|
- cmake woes (findCUDA)
|
|
- google test
|
|
- padding kernel
|
|
- column major / row major headache
|
|
- removing cuBLAS -> just row major representation
