DeepLearningKit is an open-source deep learning framework for Apple's iOS, OS X and tvOS, written in Swift and using Metal for GPU-accelerated on-device inference. It supports running pre-trained deep convolutional neural networks (e.g. Caffe-trained models) for tasks like image recognition.

Use cases

• run pre-trained deep learning models on iphone or ipad
• image recognition on ios with gpu acceleration
• use caffe-trained cnn models on apple devices
• on-device deep learning inference on mac
• run neural networks on apple tv

When to choose

• you need GPU-accelerated CNN inference on iOS, macOS or tvOS with Swift
• you want to run Caffe-trained models on Apple devices without a server

When to avoid

• you need training, not just inference
• you need modern framework support like Core ML, TensorFlow or PyTorch
• you need active maintenance or recent iOS support - the project has not been updated since 2016
