NVIDIA/TensorRT
TensorRT
TensorRT is a deep learning inference engine and software development kit designed to optimize and deploy neural networks for high-performance execution on NVIDIA GPUs. It functions as a GPU acceleration framework that reduces latency and increases throughput for trained models during production deployment.
The toolkit imports models from the Open Neural Network Exchange format and transforms them into optimized engines. It utilizes graph-based model optimization, layer-fusion kernel generation, and precision-based quantization to convert floating point weights into lower precision formats.
The framework provides capabilities for hardware-specific engine serialization and supports the extension of inference capabilities through custom plugins for specialized neural network layers.

Star history
How this analysis was created: This summary and feature list were written by an AI model that read the project's README and public documentation pages. Each feature links to the documentation it came from; stars, license and language come straight from the GitHub API. The model does not read the source code, and the analysis is refreshed when the project is re-analysed. Learn more on our About page.
