MapD & H20.ai: GPU-powered Visualization and Machine Learning

Meetup Group for GPU Enthusiasts in the San Francisco Bay Area with a focus on Enterprise Computinghttps://www.meetup.com/EnterpriseGPU

Enterprise GPU Computing Meetup Group

A revolution is taking place in the GPU software stack in the fields of analytics, machine learning and deep learning, driven by <A HREF="https://speakerdeck.com/mapd/h2o-and-mapd-meetup-at-nvidia-gpu-accelerated-ai" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">NVIDIA’s hardware innovation</A>, that provides 100x more processing cores and 20x greater memory bandwidth than CPUs. However, systems and platforms are unable to harness these disruptive performance gains because they remain isolated from each other. The GPU Open Analytics Initiative (GOAI) and its first project, the GPU Data Frame (GDF) was created to allow seamless passing of data between processes.
At this meetup, we’ll explain how we have implemented an end-to-end machine learning powered by GOAI. We will show how GDFs break down the silos to enable interactive data exploration, model training, and model scoring, that is lightning-fast by virtue of avoiding any serialization overhead. We will demo how data scientists may use MapD to visualize billions of rows, and use it to select features interactively. We will also show the integration with H2O.ai to seamlessly train models and predict outcomes. We're happy to share information specifically for your business needs, to help with your research and to amplify your open source hacking efforts.
Food and beverage will be provided.
Note: This meeting will be recorded and shared after the Meetup.
