NVIDIA has for long been a pioneer in providing the tools to facilitate deep learning. At the heart of deep learning lies the need to train Deep Neural Networks and then have these DNNs perform complex compute tasks in the shortest possible time. NVIDIA has made huge advances in developing a comprehensive software development kit, aimed at helping developers train DNNs at speeds that keep beating previous records. The solution includes cuDNN, cuSPARSE and cuBLAS libraries, DIGITS for training and NCCL to scale up the performance across multiple GPUs. Combined with the immense power of Tesla GPUs built on the newly launched Pascal architecture, this entire combination helps achieve the end goal of bigger and better DNNs driving deep learning problems across multiple domains. Customers such as Facebook, amongst many, are harnessing NVIDIA’s deep learning solutions to provide end user impact via their applications. In India, smart startups leverage our technology to develop intelligent solutions in the consumer space, intelligent video analytics, security, smart search and many more.
