As part of: Implement mkldnn convolution fusion and quantization https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/12530
I propose to add the examples and documentation PR as well: MKL-DNN Quantization Examples and README https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/12808 Best regards, Anton пн, 5 нояб. 2018 г. в 19:02, Anton Chernov <mecher...@gmail.com>: > Dear MXNet community, > > I will be the release manager for the upcoming 1.3.1 patch release.
