Book Description
Explore GPU-enabled programmable environment for machine learning,scientific applications,and gaming using PuCUDA,PyOpenGL,and Anaconda Accelerate
GPUs are proving to be excellent general purpose-parallel computing solutions for high performance tasks such as deep learning and scientific computing.
This book will be your guide to getting started with GPU computing. It will start with introducing GPU computing and explain the architecture and programming models for GPUs. You will learn,by example,how to perform GPU programming with Python,and you’ll look at using integrations such as PyCUDA,PyOpenCL,CuPy and Numba with Anaconda for various tasks such as machine learning and data mining. Going further,you will get to grips with GPU work flows,management,and deployment using modern containerization solutions. Toward the end of the book,you will get familiar with the principles of distributed computing for training machine learning models and enhancing efficiency and performance.
By the end of this book,you will be able to set up a GPU ecosystem for running complex applications and data models that demand great processing capabilities,and be able to efficiently manage memory to compute your application effectively and quickly.
