Learn more about the GPU-accelerated libraries and development tools included in the CUDA Toolkit

GPU-Accelerated Libraries
  • cuFFT, – Fast Fourier Transforms Library
  • cuBLAS – Complete BLAS library
  • cuSPARSE – Sparse Matrix library
  • cuRAND – Random Number Generator
  • NPP – Thousands of Performance Primitives for Image & Video Processing
  • Thrust – Templated Parallel Algorithms & Data Structures
