 Before make, you can set such options in the `Makefile`: [link](https://github.com/AlexeyAB/darknet/blob/9c1b9a2cf6363546c152251be578a21f3c3caec6/Makefile#L1)
 * `GPU=1` to build with CUDA to accelerate by using GPU (CUDA should be in `/usr/local/cuda`)
 * `CUDNN=1` to build with cuDNN v5-v7 to accelerate training by using GPU (cuDNN should be in `/usr/local/cudnn`)
+* `CUDNN_HALF=1` to build for Tensor Cores (on Titan V / Tesla V100 / DGX-2 and later) speedup Detection 3x, Training 2x
 * `OPENCV=1` to build with OpenCV 3.x/2.4.x - allows to detect on video files and video streams from network cameras or web-cams
 * `DEBUG=1` to bould debug version of Yolo
 * `OPENMP=1` to build with OpenMP support to accelerate Yolo by using multi-core CPU
