| <p>SINGA is a general distributed deep learning platform for training big deep |
| learning models over large datasets. It is designed with an intuitive |
| programming model based on the layer abstraction. SINGA supports a wide variety |
| of popular deep learning models.</p> |
| <p>This release includes the following <strong>major features</strong>:</p> |

| <li><a href="../docs/hybrid.html">Hybrid neural net partitioning</a> supports data and model |
| parallelism at the same time.</li> |
| <li><a href="../docs/python.html">Python wrapper</a> makes it easy to configure the job, |
| including neural net and SGD algorithm.</li> |
| <li><a href="../docs/general-rnn.html">RNN model and BPTT algorithm</a> are implemented to |
| support applications based on RNN models, e.g., GRU.</li> |
