Deep-Learning Framework SINGA Graduates to Top-Level Apache Project

#artificialintelligence

The Apache Software Foundation (ASF) recently announced that SINGA, a framework for distributed deep-learning, has graduated to top-level project (TLP) status, signifying the project's maturity and stability. SINGA has already been adopted by companies in several sectors, including banking and healthcare. Originally developed at the National University of Singapore, SINGA joined ASF's incubator in March 2015. SINGA provides a framework for distributing the work of training deep-learning models across a cluster of machines, in order to reduce the time needed to train the model. In addition to its use as a platform for academic research, SINGA has been used in commercial applications by Citigroup and CBRE, as well as in several health-care applications, including an app to aid patients with pre-diabetes.
