Question

我刚设法安装theano。我使用下面的代码进行了速度测试 - 并且theano比CPU上的numpy慢得多。我认为我可能无意中将theano与错误的blas库相关联？（假设如果他们使用相同的库，他们会显示相同的速度）？有没有一种简单的方法来检查和补救这个？请让我知道任何建议 - 非常感谢，W

NP时间：2.384000 [s]，theano时间：47.326000 [s]

import numpy as np
import time
import theano
A = np.random.rand(1000,10000).astype(theano.config.floatX)
B = np.random.rand(10000,1000).astype(theano.config.floatX)
np_start = time.time()
AB = A.dot(B)
np_end = time.time()
X,Y = theano.tensor.matrices('XY')
mf = theano.function([X,Y],X.dot(Y))
t_start = time.time()
tAB = mf(A,B)
t_end = time.time()
print "NP time: %f[s], theano time: %f[s] (times should be close when run on CPU!)" %(
                                           np_end-np_start, t_end-t_start)
print "Result difference: %f" % (np.abs(AB-tAB).max(), )

根据ali_m的建议，我检查了theano.config.blas.ldflags（显示了CBLAS）并检查了np。 config .show（） - 它显示了底部的文字：< / p>

跟随http://deeplearning.net/software/theano/install.html（在故障排除中） - 我可以禁用Theano BLAS（这确实加快了速度） - 但我想知道我如何能够实现选项零或选项二 - 并让theano使用相同的MKL库？

Answer 1

要使theano动态链接MKL而不是CBLAS，您可以尝试以下方法：

创建文件$HOME/.theanorc.txt（如果该文件尚不存在）

添加以下行：

[blas]
ldflags = -L'C:/Program Files (x86)/Intel/Composer XE/mkl/lib/intel64' -lmkl_intel_thread -lmkl_core -lpthread -lm

我手头没有Windows机器来测试这个，所以你可能需要稍微改变路径。

theano - 速度测试与numpy相比 - BLAS库
