GPU-Computing macOS Big Sur vs iBuntu Lux Sur

Posted on by — Leave a reply

Hello, Let’s test this beauty from the last post on… LuxMark ;-). The thing is that I wanted to compare OpenCL. I know that OpenCL in both systems is not working fully right. I found on macOS that (multi-GPU case) clFinish(q) is slow down each time, on iBuntu -cl-fast-relaxed-math cause a black-scenes on Lux Ball… and on Darknet on OpenCL it is more things wrong, but maybe there are my bugs, so… Continue ReadingGPU-Computing macOS Big Sur vs iBuntu Lux Sur→

Mac Moria Miner Project Failure

Posted on by — Leave a reply

Hello, every failure is a lesson, so let me describe the experiment I did and the story behind it… I dream about the strongest possible GPU-computing macOS. Let’s start with hardware… design, the way it looks like, is not a design, so let’s name it the look and feel ;-). I am sorry to Apple, please forgive me this was only for test and future, again try, to Ph.D. studies. Do not Continue ReadingMac Moria Miner Project Failure→

MMM means Mac Moria Miner project

Hello, my dear readers. Today I would like to remind you of a nice viewpoint of Steve Jobs, who I like to learn from, more from the story and public-faced information than from internal people skills… but anyway, here is the short interview I would like to influence you with first. The secret of life that things around you are made by people no smarter than you, so if you want to Continue ReadingMMM means Mac Moria Miner project→

DreamPC vs HaniaPC

Posted on by — Leave a reply

Hi, today I would like to share some hardware update I did recently. I put in a HaniaPC the new ASUS AMD Radeon RT 6900 XT and I was wonder how it is preforming compared to a Green PC workstation I upgraded in 2019 with 2 x NVidia Titan RTX 24GB VRAM each with NVLink. So are you interested about tests results. I used 3DMark for Microsoft Windows and Geekbench that is Continue ReadingDreamPC vs HaniaPC→

The most famous CEO on the planet! The best industry winning products “hearts”. The Silicon Game Changer! In short, the must to watch the public announcement on the prestigious CES 2021 conference. I personally cannot wait! Enjoy! p ;).

The Multi-GPU-SET Idea

Posted on by — Leave a reply

Hello, I am a Ph.D. student in Poland at the Silesian University of Technology. And I wanted to start a general discussion on the classifier on the video stream improvement idea. I called it the “Multi-GPU & Multi-SET” or in short “Multi-GPU-SET” idea. Basically, people use Multi-GPU and the “Syncing” for Convolutional Neural Networks. But nobody in my opinion tried multi GPU to classification. So what it is about? Well, it is Continue ReadingThe Multi-GPU-SET Idea→

GPU OpenCL Fine-Tuning Problem Solution

Posted on by — 2 Comments ↓

Hello, after about half-year I at last found the solution of the biggest optimization issue I had so far in the Darknet on OpenCL solution. It was really hard to solve and I even wrote at the AMD Community Post. Today very early morning I post on that post solution that is shown below. CPU CODE THAT INVOKES THE GPU CODE AND USES BOTH GLOBAL AND LOCAL THREAD SPACES! GPU CODE THAT Continue ReadingGPU OpenCL Fine-Tuning Problem Solution→

Hi, This video was recording today and it shows in detail my Ph.D. first year of study effects. The first on the planet… Multi-GPU & Multi-SET image classification pattern… so, I wish you the happy watch! Thanks for watching! p ;).

PhD OpenCL Challenges

Posted on by — Leave a reply

Hi, today I want to show you code samples for OpenCL that may be important when you start with these amazing graphics cards computing (GPU-computing) library. The goal is to make code as good as possible on any platform that supports OpenCL and on GPUs from AMD, Intel, NVidia, Mali on CPUs from AMD, Intel, ARM. All examples are from the Darknet on OpenCL port I did some time ago. The first Continue ReadingPhD OpenCL Challenges→

Darknet in OpenCL on Beagleboard AI

Posted on by — 1 Comment ↓

Hi, today I have a very interesting single-board computer named Beagleboard AI.So far my favorite single-board computer was Darknet in OpenCL on Asus Tinker Board S. Let’s login via SSH on it on the flashed system on the SD card and configure it. I connected to it also hardware webcam Logitech C920… but just before I will show you the design and then command prompts to make it use Darknet on OpenCL Continue ReadingDarknet in OpenCL on Beagleboard AI→

This is the status update of my private “after work” progress on Ph.D. studies at the Silesian University in Gliwice Poland. I think it may interest all AI/ML researchers around the world. Basically, I covered in 30 minutes Conventional Neural Network (CNN) engine usage to classified on the objects on video frames. I cover also my implementation of the Darknet on OpenCL that you can find at https://github.com/sowson/darknet including the goal, idea, Continue ReadingPhD Progress from March 8th 2020 Update Keynote→

Is OpenCL beats CUDA?

Posted on by — Leave a reply

Hi, there is no short answer to that question. I found that only and the best implementation of OpenCL is on macOS and I compared Nvidia Titan RTX 24GB GDDRX VRAM ($3000) on GNU/Linux, on CUDA, on OpenCL… and to beat it I chose AMD Radeon VII 16GB HBM2 VRAM ($700), but on GNU/Linux is slow, very slow. However, on the installed by me macOS on Hania PC, this AMD GPU computation Continue ReadingIs OpenCL beats CUDA?→
