Specialised hardware chips, such as GPUs and FPGAs, can speed up the execution of networks, but it can sometimes be hard to write code that uses the hardware to its full potential. We will be looking at a few simple tips and trick in this tutorial that you can use to speed up training and ultimately save on training costs. Review comment: Can use most of these tricks for inference too, added a comment for this. ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
