The CPE Deep Learning Plugin (CPE DL Plugin) is a highly tuned communication layer for performing distributed deep learning training. The CPE DL Plugin provides a high performance gradient averaging operation and routines to facilitate process identification, job size determination, and broadcasting of initial weights and biases. The routines can be accessed through the plugin's C or Python APIs. The Python API provides support for TensorFlow, PyTorch, Keras, and NumPy.
