Install notes — Tensorflow in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS with Nvidia CUDA

In this install note, I will discuss how to compile and install from source a GPU accelerated instance of tensorflow in Ubuntu 18.04. Tensorflow is a deep-learning framework developed by Google. It has become an industry standard tool for both deep-learning research and production grade application development. Step 0 — Basic house-keeping: Before starting the… Continue reading Install notes — Tensorflow in Ubuntu 18.04 LTS with Nvidia CUDA

Raspberry Pi — How to reformat a bootable SD card.

Recently, I received a Raspberry Pi to play with, from a good friend of mine. One of the projects I am working on is to deploy artificial intelligence applications in low powered devices. Raspberry Pi seemed to be a great platform to experiment with. But, I ran into a lot of interesting issues. I will… Continue reading Raspberry Pi — How to reformat a bootable SD card.

Learning from mistakes – Fixing pygpu attribute error.

I am part of a great AI community in New York. Today was the fourth week of an ongoing effort to share the practical tricks to developing a natural language processing pipe line using deep learning. This effort was borne out of my efforts to engage the community to develop a greater understanding of how… Continue reading Learning from mistakes – Fixing pygpu attribute error.

Hardware for artificial intelligence – My wishlist.

We recently developed an incredible machine learning workstation. It was born out of necessity, when we were developing image recognition algorithms for cancer detection. The idea was so incredibly powerful, that we decided to market it as a product to help developers in implementing artificial intelligence tools. During this launch process, I came across an interesting article… Continue reading Hardware for artificial intelligence – My wishlist.
