Triton
This is the development repository of Triton, a language and compiler for writing highly efficient custom Deep-Learning primitives. The aim of Triton is to provide an open-source environment to write fast code at higher productivity than CUDA, but also with higher flexibility than other existing DSLs.
The foundations of this project are described in the following MAPL2019 publication: Triton: An Intermediate Language and Compiler for Tiled Neural Network Computations. Please consider citing this work if you use Triton!
The official documentation contains installation instructions and tutorials.
Quick Installation
You can install the latest stable release of Triton from pip:
pip install triton
Binary wheels are available for CPython 3.7-3.11 and PyPy 3.8-3.9.
And the latest nightly release:
pip install -U --index-url https://aiinfra.pkgs.visualstudio.com/PublicPackages/_packaging/Triton-Nightly/pypi/simple/ triton-nightly
Install from source
