Things to Remember

  • The types of problems that can be parallized with map-reduce clusters versus GPUs
  • SIMD versus MIMD parallization
  • The actual process involved in using GPUs for ML problems:
    • Minibatches are generated by the CPU
    • Minibatch data is copied from CPU to GPU
    • Vectorized version of classifier update step is executed on the GPU
    • So the ML weights (the model) and one minibatch are stored on the GPU
