Have you seriously considered if the DPDK Project is the best home for this project? I can easily imagine the DPDK development process being a hindrance in many aspects for an evolving AI/ML library. Off the top of my head, it would probably be better off as a separate project, like SPDK.

If all this stuff can be completely omitted at build time, I have no objections.

A small note about naming (not intending to start a flame war, so please feel free to ignore!): I haven't worked seriously with ML/AI since university three decades ago, so I'm quite rusty in the domain. However, I don't see any Machine Learning functions proposed by this API. The library provides an API to an Inference Engine - but nobody says the inference model stems from Machine Learning; it might as well be a hand crafted model. Do you plan to propose APIs for training the models? If not, the name of the library could confuse some potential users.
