[D] Using C++ for training a Vision Transformer Agent (alien.top)

Hey!

So, I am currently enrolled in a Master's Degree program and started my thesis this semester. I still have a year to develop it, so what I'm doing now is gathering as much info as I can about libraries for ML. My adviser and I have decided that we're going to use Vision Transformers as our approach to train an agent to inspect products at factories.

So, a little background on me: I am a self-taught game developer. I've learned Lua, C, C++, and C# to make games, that's what I'm good at. I've studied the basics of ML at uni, but it was on Python. My most proficient language is C++, as I've worked a lot with it and feel comfortable with it, so I was thinking: Are there any good ML libraries for C++? Libraries that are as easy to use as Python libs (TensorFlow, Pytorch, etc.), for example? I love the way that you have control over the resources when coding with C and/or C++. Runtime speed is a bonus too.

Thanks for the help :)

There is a cpp implementation of ViT by Nvidia https://github.com/NVIDIA/FasterTransformer/blob/main/docs/vit_guide.md
