             Summary: Implement layers using CUDNN for GPU training
                 Key: SINGA-100
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SINGA-100
             Project: Singa
          Issue Type: New Feature
            Reporter: wangwei


NVIDIA has released the cudnn library optimized for CNN operations like 
convolution, pooling, etc. It has achieved overall good performance. Hence, it 
is essential to add cudnn supported layers in SINGA for efficient GPU training 
(SINGA-41).

We will use the cudnn library to implement CNN layers, namely,
 cudnnConvolutionLayer, cudnnPoolingLayer, cudnnLRNLayer, cudnnSoftmaxLayer, 
cudnnReLULayer, cudnnSigmoidLayer, cudnnTanhLayer, cudnnDivNormLayer.

Data type float-16 will not be consider in this ticket.
