# Windows Machine Learning

> ⚠️ **IMPORTANT**<br/>For the latest documentation about Windows Machine Learning, see [What is Windows ML](/windows/ai/new-windows-ml/overview). That documentation describes APIs that are in the **Microsoft.Windows.AI.MachineLearning** namespace, which ships in the Windows App SDK. Those APIs supersede the ones documented here, which are in the **Windows.AI.MachineLearning** namespace, and were shipped in 2018.

Windows Machine Learning is a high-performance machine learning inference API that is powered by [ONNX Runtime](https://onnxruntime.ai/) and [DirectML](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/ai/directml/dml).

The Windows ML API is a [Windows Runtime Component](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/uwp/winrt-components/) and is suitable for high-performance, low-latency applications such as frameworks, games, and other real-time applications as well as applications built with high-level languages.


This repo contains Windows Machine Learning samples and tools that demonstrate how to build machine learning powered scenarios into Windows applications.

## Getting Started with Windows ML

**Prerequisites**
- [Visual Studio 2017 Version 15.7.4 or Newer](https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/downloads)


Windows ML offers machine learning inferencing via the inbox Windows SDK as well as a redistributable NuGet package. The table below highlights the availability, distribution, language support, servicing, and forward compatibility aspects of the In-Box and NuGet package for Windows ML.
