Achieving AI with IEI Deep Learning Solution
Puzzle Dev. Kit is an AI hardware ready system ideal for deep learning inference computing to help you get faster, deeper insights into your customers and your business. IEI’s PUZZLE Dev. Kit supports graphics cards, Intel FPGA acceleration card, and Intel VPU acceleration card and provides additional computational power and end-to-end solution to help run your tasks more efficiently. With the NVIDIA TensorRT, QNAP QuAI, and Intel OpenVINO AI development toolkit, it helps you deploy your solutions faster than ever.
Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™ toolkit
Intel® Distribution of OpenVINO™ toolkit is based on convolutional neural networks (CNN); the toolkit extends workloads across multiple types of Intel® platforms and maximizes performance.
It can optimize pre-trained deep learning models such as Caffe, MXNET, and Tensorflow. The tool suite includes more than 20 pre-trained models, and supports 100+ public and custom models (including Caffe, MXNet, TensorFlow, ONNX, Kaldi) for easier deployments across Intel® silicon products (CPU, GPU/Intel® Processor Graphics, FPGA, VPU).
Ready for Proprietary Network Appliance
In a virtual CPE (vCPE) model, all the network functions can be consolidated using software-based virtual network functions (VNFs) running on top of a single universal CPE (uCPE) appliance. The VNFs may reside inside an onsite hardware device, in an enterprise data center, or in the cloud. Both businesses and service providers can easily operate IEI PUZZLE Dev. Kit.
