CPU Parallelization of Pooling and Relu

[URMISH THAKKER]

Hi,

I was not able to locate a multithreaded version Pooling and ReLU for CPUs. I was wondering if a version of this is already available? Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,

I compiled Caffe with OpenBLAS to get support for multiple CPUs - also
with pooling and ReLU, as far as I can tell. It is quite slow compared
to a decent GPU, though.

I have compiled caffe with ATLAS for multiple threads. But looking at the source code of Pooling and ReLU, I dont think it has been parallelized. OpenBLAS would only help with the Matrix Multiplication operations.
