This is remarkable simple
Marvin is a GPU-only neural network framework made with simplicity, hackability, speed, memory consumption, and high dimensional data in mind.
Download CUDA 7.5 and cuDNN 5. You will need to register with NVIDIA. Below are some additional steps to set up cuDNN 5. NOTE We highly recommend that you install different versions of cuDNN to different directories (e.g., /usr/local/cudnn/vXX) because different software packages may require different versions.
LIB_DIR=lib$([[ $(uname) == "Linux" ]] && echo 64)
CUDNN_LIB_DIR=/usr/local/cudnn/v5/$LIB_DIR
echo LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$CUDNN_LIB_DIR >> ~/.profile && ~/.profile
tar zxvf cudnn*.tgz
sudo cp cuda/$LIB_DIR/* $CUDNN_LIB_DIR/
sudo cp cuda/include/* /usr/local/cudnn/v5/include/./compile.sh- Prepare data: run examples/mnist/prepare_mnist.m in Matlab
- Train a model: run ./examples/mnist/demo.sh in shell
- Visualize filters: run examples/mnist/demo_vis_filter.m in Matlab
