question:
Fully connected network has been widely used in deep learning, and its computation efficiency is highly benefited from the matrix multiplication algorithm with cuBLAS on GPU. However, We found that, there exist some drawbacks of cuBLAS in calculating matrix A multiplies the transpose of matrix B (i.e., NT operation). To reduce the impact of NT operation by cuBLAS, we exploit the out-of-place transpose of matrix B to avoid using NT operation, and then we apply our method to Caffe, which is a popular deep learning tool. Our contribution is two-fold. First, we propose a naive method (TNN) and model-based method (MTNN) to increase the performance in calculating A × B , and it achieves about 4.7 times performance enhancement in our tested cases on GTX1080 card. Second, we integrate MTNN method into Caffe to enhance the efficiency in training fully connected networks, which achieves about 70% speedup compared to the original Caffe in our configured fully connected networks on GTX1080 card.
answer:
Improving the Performance of Fully Connected Neural Networks by Out-of-Place Matrix Transpose


question:
The basic features of some of the most versatile and popular open source frameworks for machine learning (TensorFlow, Deep Learning4j, and H2O) are considered and compared. Their comparative analysis was performed and conclusions were made as to the advantages and disadvantages of these platforms. The performance tests for the de facto standard MNIST data set were carried out on H2O framework for deep learning algorithms designed for CPU and GPU platforms for single-threaded and multithreaded modes of operation. Keywords—machine learning; deep learning; TensorFlow; Deep Learning4j; H2O; MNIST; multicore CPU; GPU.
answer:
Comparative Analysis of Open Source Frameworks for Machine Learning with Use Case in Single- Threaded and Multi-Threaded Modes


question:
This paper explores the contributions of Answer Set Programming (ASP) to the study of an established theory from the field of Second Language Acquisition: Input Processing. The theory describes default strategies that learners of a second language use in extracting meaning out of a text, based on their knowledge of the second language and their background knowledge about the world. We formalized this theory in ASP, and as a result we were able to determine opportunities for refining its natural language description, as well as directions for future theory development. We applied our model to automating the prediction of how learners of English would interpret sentences containing the passive voice. We present a system, PIas, that uses these predictions to assist language instructors in designing teaching materials. To appear in Theory and Practice of Logic Programming (TPLP).
