(Updated) ONNX: Open Neural Network Exchange Format

I was just exposed to this.   I will post an introductory presentation on this here when it shortly becomes available.   (Updated) Great idea.   Their site has lots more:

Open Neural Network Exchange Format
The New Open Ecosystem for Interchangeable AI Models

What is ONNX?

ONNX is a open format to represent deep learning models. With ONNX, AI developers can more easily move models between state-of-the-art tools and choose the combination that is best for them. ONNX is developed and supported by a community of partners

ONNX is a community project created by Facebook and Microsoft. We believe there is a need for greater interoperability in the AI tools community. Many people are working on great tools, but developers are often locked in to one framework or ecosystem. ONNX is the first step in enabling more of these tools to work together by allowing them to share models. Our goal is to make it possible for developers to use the right combinations of tools for their project. We want everyone to be able to take AI from research to reality as quickly as possible without artificial friction from toolchains. We hope you'll join us in this mission!

Support for ONNX added to Sony's Neural Network Libraries
Sony’s Neural Network Libraries now supports ONNX, furthering interoperability between the open source deep learning framework and other ML tools. Neural Network Libraries is a deep learning framework that is intended to be used for research, development and production, with the aim of having it running everywhere: desktop PCs, HPC clusters, embedded devices and production servers. It’s used in various products like the Sony Aibo robot, Sony’s Real Estate Price Estimate Engine, and Xperia Ear.   ... "
