Top 10 Deep Learning Frameworks
Deep learning is an area of AI and machine learning that uses unclassified data to classify images, computer vision, natural language processing (NLP), and other complex tasks. A neural network is called “deep” if it has at least three layers (one hidden layer). The network does deep learning on many hidden layers of computation. Whether …
How AI is Used by Researchers to Help Mitigate Misinformation?
Researchers tackling the challenge of visual misinformation — think the TikTok video of Tom Cruise supposedly golfing in Italy during the pandemic — must continuously advance their tools to identify AI-generated images. NVIDIA is furthering this effort by collaborating with researchers to develop and test detector algorithms on our state-of-the-art image-generation models. Crafting a dataset …
How Artificial Intelligence and Science Can Help Combat Climate Change?
In a 2009 New York Times opinion piece, Cornell University mathematician Steven Strogatz claimed that partial differential equations are “the most powerful tool humanity has ever created.” Anima Anandkumar, director of machine learning research at NVIDIA and professor of computing at the California Institute of Technology, delivered this quote at the GTC talk AI4Science: The …
The Best GPU for Deep Learning
Historically, the training phase of the deep learning pipeline has been the most time-consuming. Not only is this a time-consuming process, but it is also an expensive one. The most significant component of a deep learning pipeline is the human component — data scientists frequently wait hours or even days for training to complete, reducing …
Start-up problem when using A100 GPU in pass-through
A Compute node with four NVIDIA-A100 GPUs and one Mellanox InfiniBand adapter is part of an OpenStack Platform deployment. The compute node has been configured to provide GPUs in passthrough to the VMs. The schedule for creating a VM with the GPU in passthrough is successful; however, the VM creation failed on the first attempt. …
Why gaming GPU are not used for HPC?
Does using gaming GPUs for high-performance computing (HPC) make sense? It’s a yes and a no. Although gaming GPUs are significantly less expensive, they still have several drawbacks that make them unsuitable for high-performance computing (HPC) environments. Gamming GPUs come in all shapes and sizes, and it’s easy to see why when you look at …
What is Artificial Intelligence (AI)?
Artificial intelligence uses computers and machines to simulate the human mind’s problem-solving and decision-making abilities. John McCarthy’s concept of artificial intelligence (AI) in a 2004 paper is one of many definitions that have appeared over the past few decades, “It is a branch of engineering and research that deals with the creation of intelligent devices, …
What is CUDA Programming: Introduction and Examples
What is CUDA Programming? In order to take advantage of NVIDIA’s parallel computing technologies, you can use CUDA programming. Graphics processing units (GPUs) can benefit from the CUDA platform and application programming interface (API) (GPU). The interface is built on C/C++, but it allows you to integrate other programming languages and frameworks as well. CUDA …

Artificial intelligence And machine learning with the GPU
It was in the early 1950s that computational models were first used in the scientific community. As a pioneer in computer games and artificial intelligence, the phrase “Machine Learning” was invented in 1959 by Arthur Samuels, an American pioneer. Thereafter, the idea of Machine Learning began to take shape from a theoretical concept to actual …
