CUDA SPOTLIGHT
|
 GPU-Accelerated Deep Neural Networks
This week’s Spotlight is on Dr. Dan Ciresan, a senior researcher at IDSIA in Switzerland and a pioneer in using CUDA for Deep Neural Networks (DNNs). Dan’s methods have won international acclaim on topics such as recognizing handwritten Chinese characters and detecting mitosis in cancer histology images. Read the Spotlight. |

CUDA 6
The CUDA 6 Production Release is now available for download. This version further simplifies parallel programming with new features such as Unified Memory; Drop-in Libraries; and Multi-GPU Scaling. To learn more, attend these CUDA 6 webinars:
Bioinformatics + CUDA
Interested in bioinformatics? Check out the new NVBIO page on CUDA Zone. NVBIO is a library of reusable components designed by NVIDIA to accelerate bioinformatics applications using CUDA.
INCITE Call for Proposals
Accelerate your science on Titan, world’s #1 supercomputer for open science, by harnessing more than 20 petaflops of parallel processing using GPUs. Open to all across the globe. Get started here.
C-3PO and Machine Learning
Technologist Rob Farber recently taught a course on OpenACC and CUDA to college students at KAUST in Saudi Arabia. In addition, he had the opportunity to introduce parallel programming to high school and middle school students. He used the character C-3PO from Star Wars to represent machine learning and demonstrated how a GPU can learn to read. See more on Rob’s new blog:TechEnablement. |
