During Wednesday’s Current trade, Shares of NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ:NVDA), lost -0.81% to $19.63.
NVIDIA Corporation (NVDA), declared updates to its GPU-accelerated deep learning software that will double deep learning training performance.
The new software will empower data scientists and researchers to supercharge their deep learning projects and product development work by creating more accurate neural networks through faster model training and more sophisticated model design.
The NVIDIA®DIGITS™ Deep Learning GPU Training System version 2 (DIGITS 2) and NVIDIA CUDA®Deep Neural Network library version 3 (cuDNN 3) provide noteworthy performance enhancements and new capabilities.
For data scientists, DIGITS 2 now delivers automatic scaling of neural network training across multiple high-performance GPUs. This can double the speed of deep neural network training for image classification contrast to a single GPU.
For deep learning researchers, cuDNN 3 features optimized data storage in GPU memory for the training of larger, more sophisticated neural networks. cuDNN 3 also provides higher performance than cuDNN 2, enabling researchers to train neural networks up to two times faster on a single GPU.
The new cuDNN 3 library is predictable to be integrated into forthcoming versions of the deep learning frameworks Caffe, Minerva, Theano and Torch, which are widely used to train deep neural networks.
