I haven't seen CuDNN equivalents (in terms of perf) for common machine learning frameworks from AMD. I don't think they exist, if they did, people would shift to using AMD.

For NVidia I have seen some faster kernels than the ones supplied by NVidia - https://github.com/NervanaSystems/neon - though CuDNN introduced Winograd kernels too in their last update

I do not know about the quality of this since I do not use NNs, but there is https://github.com/hughperkins/DeepCL and I think I have seen others.
