Glossary
Multinode Training Supported on a pyxis/enroot Slurm cluster.
Deep Learning Compiler (DLC) TensorFlow XLA and PyTorch JIT and/or TorchScript
Accelerated Linear Algebra (XLA) XLA is a domain-specific compiler for linear algebra that can accelerate TensorFlow models with potentially no source code changes. The results are improvements in speed and memory usage.
PyTorch JIT and/or TorchScript TorchScript is a way to create serializable and optimizable models from PyTorch code. TorchScript, an intermediate representation of a PyTorch model (subclass of nn.Module) that can then be run in a high-performance environment such as C++.
Automatic Mixed Precision (AMP) Automatic Mixed Precision (AMP) enables mixed precision training on Volta, Turing, and NVIDIA Ampere GPU architectures automatically.
TensorFloat-32 (TF32) TensorFloat-32 (TF32) is the new math mode in NVIDIA A100 GPUs for handling the matrix math also called tensor operations. TF32 running on Tensor Cores in A100 GPUs can provide up to 10x speedups compared to single-precision floating-point math (FP32) on Volta GPUs. TF32 is supported in the NVIDIA Ampere GPU architecture and is enabled by default.
Jupyter Notebooks (NB) The Jupyter Notebook is an open-source web application that allows you to create and share documents that contain live code, equations, visualizations and narrative text.
