Using GPUs for machine learning algorithms
Abstract
Using dedicated hardware to do machine learning typically ends up in disaster because of cost, obsolescence, and poor software. The popularization of graphic processing units (GPUs), which are now available on every PC, provides an attractive alternative. We propose a generic 2-layer fully connected neural network GPU implementation which yields over 3/spl times/ speedup for both training and testing with respect to a 3 GHz P4 CPU.

The insight of using GPUs to train ML models has been around for at least 7 years prior to AlexNet, and the utility for large-scale ML models is spelled out as early as 2005.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
