README
*Bright Wire* is an extensible machine learning library for .NET with optional MKL and GPU support (via CUDA).
## Getting Started
*Bright Wire* is a .net 8 class library.
The previous .net 4.6 version can be found here: https://github.com/jdermody/brightwire-v2
*Bright Wire* runs "out of the box" with its own vectorised linear algebra library.
If you have a NVIDIA GPU then you can also use GPU based computation. You will need to install
[NVIDIA CUDA Toolkit 12](https://developer.nvidia.com/cuda-downloads)
(and have a [Kepler or better NVIDIA GPU](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CUDA#GPUs_supported)).
To enable higher performance CPU based computation on Intel hardware, *Bright Wire* also supports the Intel Math Kernel Library (MKL).
