开源框架成为科技巨头全面布局的重点

Abstract:Open-source deep learning platform is the key of artificial intelligent（AI）development in past few years. It has significant advantages such as it allows public access，duplication and modification of source code，the opened and shared kernel is similar to internet. As compared to the traditional closed-source，open-source is developed in a collaborative public manner，with the feature of rapid evolution and more scalable thus a booster for AI development. In addition，it tremendously reduces company’s development cost，hence a lower consumer prices. As the core technology in AI，deep learning outranks the old technology. This is because deep learning requires various software and hardware platforms such as programming languages，interfaces，OS，CPU，GPU et cetera，thus a demand for high level interfaces from the frame which allows the users to focus on programming but not low level details. On the other hand，deep learning frame in earlier stage was mainly provided by academic institutions which is not comparative for today’s AI. As a result，tech giants start to develop their own open-source frame and deep learning ecosystem.
