oneAPI Data Analytics Library (oneDAL) is a powerful machine learning library that helps you accelerate big data analysis at all stages: preprocessing, transformation, analysis, modeling, validation, and decision making.

The library implements classical machine learning algorithms. The boost in their performance is achieved by leveraging the capabilities of Intel® hardware.

oneDAL is part of oneAPI. The current branch implements version 1.1 of oneAPI Specification.

There are different ways for you to build high-performance data science applications that use the advantages of oneDAL:

• Use oneDAL C++ interfaces with or without SYCL support (learn more)
• Use Intel(R) Extension for Scikit-learn* to accelerate existing scikit-learn code without changing it
• Use daal4py, a standalone package with Python API for oneDAL
• Use Scala and Java interfaces that match Apache Spark MlLib API

Check System Requirements before installing oneDAL.

You can download the specific version of oneDAL or install it from sources.

C++ Examples:

• oneAPI interfaces with SYCL support
• oneAPI interfaces without SYCL support
• DAAL interfaces

Python Examples:

• scikit-learn-intelex
• daal4py

oneDAL provides Scala and Java interfaces that match Apache Spark MlLib API and use oneDAL solvers under the hood. This implementation allows you to get a 3-18x increase in performance compared to the default Apache Spark MLlib.
