Using OpenGL instead of CUDA for machine learning

Summary

In this project, we

  1. Added an OpenGL backend for MXNet/TVM - a general-purpose tensor computation framework, so that it automatically compiles a Python program into an OpenGL shader that runs on the GPU on a computer that does not have CUDA.

  2. Explored optimizations of OpenGL shader programs so that a fundamental computation task needed in machine learning - matrix multiplication - has comparable performance with OpenCL on the same machine.
