Marvin

Marvin is a GPU-only neural network framework made with simplicity, hackability, speed, memory consumption, and high dimensional data in mind.

Dependences

Download CUDA 7.5 and cuDNN 3. You will need to register with NVIDIA. Below are some additional steps to set up cuDNN 3:

CUDA_LIB_DIR=/usr/local/cuda/lib$([[ $(uname) == "Linux" ]] && echo 64)
echo LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$CUDA_LIB_DIR >> ~/.profile && ~/.profile

tar zxvf cudnn*.tgz
sudo cp cuda/lib/* $CUDA_LIB_DIR
sudo cp cuda/include/* /usr/local/cuda/include

Compilation

./compile.sh

MNIST

  1. Prepare data: run examples/mnist/prepare_mnist.m in Matlab
  2. Train a model: run ./examples/mnist/demo.sh in shell
  3. Visualize filters: run examples/mnist/demo_vis_filter.m in Matlab
