Microsoft Cognitive Toolkit

An open-source, distributed deep learning tool

CommonProductProgrammingDeep LearningDistributed

The Microsoft Cognitive Toolkit (CNTK) is an open-source, commercial-grade distributed deep learning tool. It uses directed graphs to describe the computational steps of a neural network, supports common model types, and implements automatic differentiation and parallel computing. CNTK supports 64-bit Linux and Windows operating systems and can be used as a library for Python, C or C++ programs, or as an independent machine learning tool using its own model description language, BrainScript.

Supports various model types
such as feed-forward neural networks
convolutional neural networks
and recurrent neural networks
Implements stochastic gradient descent and backpropagation learning
Supports parallel computing on multiple GPUs and servers
Free to use with no additional licensing for single-GPU stochastic gradient descent
Supports Open Neural Network Exchange (ONNX) format

Used for training and deploying deep learning models

Training an image classification model using CNTK
Converting a PyTorch-trained model to ONNX format
Evaluating deep learning models using CNTK
