$ mkdir build && cd build
$ cmake ..
$ make

Accelerate the Network on CPU. OpenBlas is required.

$ cmake .. -DBLAS_BACKEND=OPENBLAS

Accelerate the Network by GPU. CUDA and CUDNN are required.

$ cmake .. -DGUP_BACKEND=CUDA
$ cmake .. -DGUP_BACKEND=CUDA -DUSE_CUDNN=1

$ ./Elephant -m ucci -w <weights file>

The network is an experiment version. The format will be changed in the future. Please check it before you use it.
