Supercomputing speeds up deep learning training

Supercomputing speeds up deep learning training 11/18/2017 07:29 PM EST Researchers from the University of California, Berkeley, the University of California, Davis, and Texas Advanced Computing Center used Stampede2 to complete a 100-epoch ImageNet deep neural network training in 11 minutes -- the fastest time recorded to date. Using 1600 Skylake processors they also bested Facebook's prior results by finishing a 90-epoch ImageNet training with ResNet-50 in 32 minutes.
