Does dlib use boost or lapack/scalapack underneath the hood for parallel linear algebra operations?

Have a look at this paper, not only does it support BLAS, but is also capable of rearranging matrix operations to make better use of BLAS routines.

EDIT: the paper https://jmlr.csail.mit.edu/papers/volume10/king09a/king09a.p...

Thank you. I will read the paper. I'm looking for an alternative to pytorch which works great for toy problems but starts to suffer at scale.

Dlib can use whichever BLAS library you want it to.
