Chainer is a Python-based deep learning framework aiming at flexibility. It provides automatic differentiation APIs based on the define-by-run approach (a.k.a. dynamic computational graphs) as well as object-oriented high-level APIs to build and train neural networks. It also supports CUDA/cuDNN using CuPy for high performance training and inference. For more details of Chainer, see the documents and resources listed above and join the community in Forum, Slack, and Twitter.

Stable version

The stable version of current Chainer is separated in here: v5.

Installation

To install Chainer, use pip.

$ pip install chainer

To enable CUDA support, set up CUDA and install CuPy.

$ pip install cupy

See the installation guide for more details..

Docker image

We are providing the official Docker image. This image supports nvidia-docker. Login to the environment with the following command, and run the Python interpreter to use Chainer with CUDA and cuDNN support.

$ nvidia-docker run -it chainer/chainer /bin/bash
