Abstract
A multistage neural network system can store neural networks as shader programs on GPU memory. Neural network weights can be stored as shader objects or textures on the GPU memory. The GPU can receive a number of neural network image processing tasks to perform on images captured by a client device. The GPU can execute the tasks per driver parameters and display results in real time or near real time on the client device.
