Jul 23, 2020 · Keras -> Tensorflow -> nGraph -> nGraph-bridge -> PlaidML -> Metal -> AMD GPU. In this domain like others, things are moving fast. So fast that it's not allways easy to keep pace and for the teams of those projects it's the same. Working with Tensorflow should be basically the same as normal. However you will have to make the following code changes to activate GPU acceleration. At the top of your NoteBook or python file before importing Tensorflow. import ngraph_bridge ngraph_bridge.set_backend('PLAIDML') Then find import tensorflow as tf and add this code after it.I just bought a new Desktop with Ryzen 5 CPU and an AMD GPU to learn GPU programming. I am also interested in learning Tensorflow for deep neural networks. After a few days of fiddling with tensorflow on CPU, I realized I should shift all the computations to GPU. The tensorflow-gpu library isn't bu...
Setting up your AMD GPU for Tensorflow in Ubuntu (Updated for 20.04) Posted on March 12, 2020 - 5 min read If you’ve been working with Tensorflow for some time now and extensively use GPUs/TPUs to speed up your compute intensive tasks, you already know that Nvidia GPUs are your only option to get the job done in a cost effective manner. The value of choosing IBM Cloud for your GPU requirements rests within the IBM Cloud enterprise infrastructure, platform and services. You get direct access to one of the most flexible server-selection processes in the industry, seamless integration with your IBM Cloud architecture, APIs and applications, and a globally distributed network of modern data centers at your fingertips.
