In recent years, there has been significant progress in the field of machine learning. Much of this progress can be attributed to the increasing usage of graphics processing units (GPUs) to accelerate the training of machine learning models. In particular, the extra computational power has lead to the popularization of Deep Learning – the use of complex, multi-level neural networks to create models, capable of feature detection from large amounts of unlabeled training data.
GPUs are so well-suited to deep learning because the type of …
