Difference between MKL, MKL ML and MKL DNN

In this article, we give the relation between MKL, MKL ML and MKL DNN. MKL is a closed sourced BLAS library while MKL ML is an open-source BLAS library which is actually a subset of MKL. MKL DNN is an open source library used to optimize Deep Neural Network operations and depends on a BLAS library.

Machine Learning (ML)

MKL (Math Kernel Library), a Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms (BLAS) Library

Intel's Math Kernel Library (Intel MKL) is a Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms (BLAS) Library that optimizes code with minimal effort for future generations of Intel processors. We have presented how to download and use MKL using an example of matrix multiplication in MKL Library
