title: OpenCL / AMD: Deep Learning
body: <p>While "googl'ing" and doing some research I were not able to find <strong>any</strong> serious/popular framework/sdk for scientific GPGPU-Computing and <em>OpenCL</em> on <em>AMD</em> hardware. Is there any literature and/or software I missed?</p>
  
  <p>Especially I am interested in <strong>deep learning</strong>.</p>
  
  <p>For all I know <em>deeplearning.net</em> recommends <em>NVIDIA</em> hardware and <em>CUDA</em> frameworks. Additionally all big deep learning frameworks I know, such as <em>Caffe</em>, <em>Theano</em>, <em>Torch</em>, <em>DL4J</em>, ... are focussed on <em>CUDA</em> and do not plan to support <em>OpenCL/AMD</em>.</p>
  
  <p>Furthermore one can find plenty of scientific papers as well as corresponding literature for <em>CUDA</em> based deep learning tasks but nearly nothing for <em>OpenCL/AMD</em> based solutions.</p>
  
  <p>Is there any chance that new or existing scientific frameworks will show up for <em>OpenCL/AMD</em> based solutions in 2015/16?</p>
  
  <p>What is a good start for <em>deep learning</em> with <em>OpenCL/AMD</em>? Any literature? Tutorials? Miscellaneous sources?</p>
