Fast.AI Achieves Record ImageNet performance with NVIDIA V100 Tensor Core GPUs
The NVIDIA blog points us to this story on how Fast.ai just completed a new deep learning benchmark milestone. Using NVIDIA V100 GPUs on AWS with PyTorch, the company now has the ability to train ImageNet to 93% accuracy in just 18 minutes. "DIU and fast.ai will be releasing software to allow anyone to easily train and monitor their own distributed models on AWS, using the best practices developed in this project," said Jeremy Howard, a founding researcher at fast.ai. "We entered this competition because we wanted to show that you don't have to have huge resources to be at the cutting edge of AI research, and we were quite successful in doing so."
