Very interesting, but it should also mention Aya. I'm working on this as well, but I haven’t bought any hardware yet. My goal is not to get 7 dan on expensive hardware, but to get as much strength as I can on standard PC hardware. I'll be looking at much smaller nets, that don’t need a GPU

Would be nice to have it as an option. My desktop PC and my laptop both have CUDA-enabled graphics, and that isn't uncommon anymore. Also, if you are training on a GPU you can probably avoid a lot of hassle if you expect to run it on a GPU as well. I don't know how other NN implementations handle

Hi Petr, to clarify a bit: pylearn2 specifically comes with a script to convert a model trained on a GPU into a version that runs on the CPU. This doesn't work very well though and the documentation points that out too. According to the dev commens that is down to how Theano, the framework pylear
