# Compute Library ![](https://img.shields.io/badge/latest_release-22.02-green) The Compute Library is a collection of low-level machine learning functions optimized for Arm® Cortex®-A and Arm® Mali™ GPUs architectures.
The library provides superior performance to other open source alternatives and immediate support for new Arm® technologies e.g. SVE2. Key Features: - Open source software available under a permissive MIT license - Over 100 machine learning functions for CPU and GPU - Multiple convolution algorithms (GeMM, Winograd, FFT, Direct and indirect-GeMM) - Support for multiple data types: FP32, FP16, INT8, UINT8, BFLOAT16 - Micro-architecture optimization for key ML primitives - Highly configurable build options enabling lightweight binaries - Advanced optimization techniques such as kernel fusion, Fast math enablement and texture utilization - Device and workload specific tuning using OpenCL tuner and GeMM optimized heuristics
