Do More, Code Less
with
Parallel Computing Libraries
Fu Jie
2012.Dec.15
General Artificial Intelligence
A Large-Scale Model of the Functioning Brain, Science, 2012
How can we get a competitive
advantage with data?
•More data
•Better algorithms
If you have a lot of time on your hands
Parallel Computing with Jacket
GPU library
Easy GPU Acceleration of MATLAB
code
No GPU-specific stuff involved
no kernels, no threads, no blocks, just regular M code
Easy to Maintain
•Each new library release improves the speed of our
code, without any code modification
•Each new library release leverages latest GPU
hardware, without any code modification
Needless to Say, We Need Machine
Learning for Big Data

“… data a new class of economic asset,
like currency or gold.”
How will we
design and implement
parallel learning systems?
Big Learning
A Shift Towards Parallelism
GPUs Multicore Clusters Clouds Supercomputers
• ML experts repeatedly solve the same parallel
design challenges:
• Race conditions, distributed state, communication…
• The resulting code is:
• difficult to maintain, extend, debug…
Avoid these problems by using
high-level abstractions

• Designed specifically for ML
• Graph dependencies
• Iterative
• Asynchronous
• Dynamic
• Simplifies design of
parallel programs:
• Abstract away hardware issues
• Automatic data synchronization
• Addresses multiple hardware

Editor's Notes

  1. 2 parts. A Map stage and a Reduce stage. The Map stage represents embarassingly parallel computation. That is, each computation is independent and can performed on different macheina without any communciation.
