Re: ONNX Support

2019-10-07 Thread Anirudh Acharya
Hi Chaitanya, The last I checked( a couple of months back) there are a few customers/users of MXNet in Amazon who use ONNX in production. The last commit for ONNX module was on Aug 29th - b7cca015553d707cd1c4ce292826d7311309419c So IMO disabling any of the tests is not a good idea. Thanks

Hi Pedro, mshadow is mostly used for tensor arithmetic. There have been discussions about including it within mxnet. I think it is a good idea. As a more long term solution using libraries like eigen to perform linear algebra operations was also suggested by anirudh2290@. I think xtensor(
