Software name: 
Theano
Policy 

Theano is available to all users of HPC2N. It is installed with full GPU and cuDNN support.

General 

Theano is a Python library that allows you to define, optimize, and evaluate mathematical expressions involving multi-dimensional arrays efficiently. It can use GPUs and perform efficient symbolic differentiation.

Description 

Theano is a numerical computation library for Python. In Theano, computations are expressed using a NumPy-esque syntax and compiled to run efficiently on either CPU or GPU architectures. Theano is an open source project primarily developed by a machine learning group at the Université de Montréal.

Availability 

On HPC2N we have Theano available as a module on Kebnekaise.

Usage at HPC2N 

To use the Theano module, first add it to your environment. Use:

module spider theano

to see which versions are available, as well as how to load the module and any needed prerequisites.

Note that while the case does not matter when you use "ml spider", it is necessary to match the case when loading the modules.

You can read more about loading modules on our Accessing software with Lmod page and our Using modules (Lmod) page.

Additional info 

More information about Theano, including documentation and getting started guides can be found on the Theano homepage.
