ArrayFire is a general-purpose tensor library that simplifies the process of software development for the parallel architectures found in CPUs, GPUs, and other hardware acceleration devices. The library serves users in every technical computing market.

Several of ArrayFire's benefits include:

Hundreds of accelerated tensor computing functions, in the following areas:
- Array handling
- Computer vision
- Image processing
- Linear algebra
- Machine learning
- Standard math
- Signal Processing
- Statistics
- Vector algorithms
Easy to use, stable, well-documented API
Rigorous benchmarks and tests ensuring top performance and numerical accuracy
Cross-platform compatibility with support for CUDA, OpenCL, and native CPU on Windows, Mac, and Linux
Built-in visualization functions through Forge
Commercially friendly open-source licensing
Enterprise support from ArrayFire

ArrayFire provides software developers with a high-level abstraction of data that resides on the accelerator, the af::array object. Developers write code that performs operations on ArrayFire arrays, which, in turn, are automatically translated into near-optimal kernels that execute on the computational device.

ArrayFire runs on devices ranging from low-power mobile phones to high-power GPU-enabled supercomputers. ArrayFire runs on CPUs from all major vendors (Intel, AMD, ARM), GPUs from the prominent manufacturers (NVIDIA, AMD, and Qualcomm), as well as a variety of other accelerator devices on Windows, Mac, and Linux.

Getting ArrayFire

Instructions to install or to build ArrayFire from source can be found on the wiki.

Conway's Game of Life Using ArrayFire

Visit the Wikipedia page for a description of Conway's Game of Life.

static const float h_kernel[] = { 1, 1, 1, 1, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1 };
static const array kernel(3, 3, h_kernel, afHost);

array state = (randu(128, 128, f32) > 0.5).as(f32); // Init state
Window myWindow(256, 256);
while(!myWindow.close()) {
    array nHood = convolve(state, kernel); // Obtain neighbors
    array C0 = (nHood == 2);  // Generate conditions for life
    array C1 = (nHood == 3);
    state = state * C0 + C1;  // Update state
    myWindow.image(state);    // Display
}

Perceptron

array predict(const array &X, const array &W) {
    return sigmoid(matmul(X, W));
}

array train(const array &X, const array &Y,
        double alpha = 0.1, double maxerr = 0.05,
        int maxiter = 1000, bool verbose = false) {
    array Weights = constant(0, X.dims(1), Y.dims(1));

    for (int i = 0; i < maxiter; i++) {
        array P   = predict(X, Weights);
        array err = Y - P;
        if (mean<float>(abs(err) < maxerr) break;
        Weights += alpha * matmulTN(X, err);
    }
    return Weights;
}
...

array Weights = train(train_feats, train_targets);
array test_outputs  = predict(test_feats, Weights);
display_results<true>(test_images, test_outputs,
                      test_targets, 20);
