Vitis AI Software
Achieve Optimal AI Inference Performance with Vitis AI
AMD Vitis™ AI is a comprehensive development platform for machine learning on AMD adaptive computing platforms. It leverages AMD AI Engine technology to accelerate machine learning workloads and deliver exceptional performance per watt. The Vitis AI toolchain consumes pre-trained models from industry-standard AI frameworks, leverages the AMD Quark quantizer, and generates highly efficient neural processing units (NPUs). Vitis AI enables AI and hardware teams to rapidly co-design and deploy end-to-end AI inference solutions. With its flexible NPU architecture, Vitis AI streamlines integration into single-chip AI systems, and is designed for maximum performance, efficiency, and design flexibility.
