@tableofcontents

@note SW Release Applicability: This sample is available in both **NVIDIA DriveWorks** and **NVIDIA DRIVE Software** releases.

@section dwx_dnn_plugin_description Description

The DNN Plugin sample loads and runs an MNIST network with a custom implementation of the max pooling layer.

**PoolPlugin.cpp** implements this layer and defines the functions that are required by DriveWorks to load
a plugin. This file is then compiled as a shared library, which is then loaded by **sample_dnn_plugin** executable
at runtime.

@section dwx_dnn_plugin_running Running the Sample

The command line for the sample is:

    ./sample_dnn_plugin

@note This sample loads mnist digit recognition network from:

- data/samples/dnn/volta if the detected GPU has VOLTA architecture.
- data/samples/dnn/turing if the detected GPU has TURING architecture.

@section dwx_dnn_plugin_output Output

The sample creates a window, displays a white screen where a hand-drawn digit will be recognized via aforementioned MNIST network model.
