Who introduced GPU to deep learning?

A variety of factors and people played a role in popularizing the use of GPUs to train deep networks. read more

In 2014, likely due to recognizing the potential for GPUs in deep learning research, Nvidia released another library, this time for efficient implementations for deep neural network primitives, such as forward and backward convolution, pooling, and normalization. read more

Which GPU(s) to Get for Deep Learning: My Experience and Advice for Using GPUs in Deep Learning 2017-04-09 by Tim Dettmers 708 Comments Deep learning is a field with intense computational requirements and the choice of your GPU will fundamentally determine your deep learning experience. read more

Fact #101: Deep Learning requires a lot of hardware. When I first got introduced with deep learning, I thought that deep learning necessarily needs large Datacenter to run on, and “deep learning experts” would sit in their control rooms to operate these systems. read more
