In case you missed it, we recently held a webinar on how to accelerate common medical imaging applications using an easy, powerful programming library with Jacket for MATLAB®.
This webinar was part of an ongoing series of webinars that will help you learn more about the many applications of Jacket and ArrayFire, while interacting with AccelerEyes GPU computing experts. Gallagher Pryor, CTO of AccelerEyes, used the Bayesian Image Segmentation algorithm as a simple use-case to show how easy it is to convert CPU code to GPU code with Jacket (only 4 lines of CPU code needed to be changed!).
For those of you who missed it, we uploaded the webinar on Youtube. We hope to see you at the next one!
We recently reported that Jacket could be used over Windows Remote Desktop connections as long as you had an NVIDIA Tesla device in TCC mode. With the latest NVIDIA driver updates, Tesla and Quadro devices can be put into TCC mode, making it possible to use Jacket over Remote Desktop with both Tesla and Quadro devices.
We have tested this out with the NVIDIA Quadro 4000 as well as Quadro 6000 GPUs. The system had a Tesla C2050 connected to the display, and the Quadro in TCC mode. Here’s the ginfo output:
AccelerEyes invites you to participate in series of webinars designed to help you learn more about Jacket for MATLAB® and ArrayFire for C/C++/Fortran/Python, a comprehensive library of GPU-accelerated functions. GPU Programming for Medical Image Segmentation: January 18, 2012 at 3:00 p.m. EST There’s a huge volume of data generated using acquisition modalities like computer tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), positron emission tomography or [...]
One of the biggest areas where GPUs are providing benefit is with scientific computing. With libraries like Sage and SciPy providing a huge collection of functions and algorithms for free, Python has become one of the favorite tools for developers around the world. Even though these libraries have C/C++ back-ends, performance on large problems quickly [...]
New Multi-GPU functionality , added support for OpenCL devices, and much more… AccelerEyes announces the release of Jacket version 2.0, adding GPU computing capabilities for use with MATLAB®. Version 2.0 delivers even more speed through a host of new improvements, maximizing GPU device performance and utilization. Notable new features include a multi-GPU interface and support [...]

A free, fast, and simple GPU library for CUDA and OpenCL devices. AccelerEyes announces the launch of ArrayFire, a freely-available GPU software library supporting CUDA and OpenCL devices. ArrayFire supports C, C++, Fortran, and Python languages on AMD, Intel, and NVIDIA hardware. Learn more by visiting the ArrayFire product page. “ArrayFire is our best software [...]
AccelerEyes invites you to participate in series of webinars designed to help you learn more about Jacket for MATLAB® and LibJacket for C/C++/Fortran/Python, a comprehensive library of GPU-accelerated functions. Joint Webinar With NVIDIA: LibJacket CUDA Library On October 20th we co-hosted a joint webinar with NVIDIA. During this well-attended event, our GPU computing experts provided a general product overview and [...]
OpenCV is one of the most popular computer vision toolkits, and over the last year they’ve been integrating more GPU processing into the core. One of the most common image processing tasks is convolution. Since LibJacket and OpenCV both support this, one of my coworkers rolled up his sleeves and benchmarked the latest versions from [...]
Researchers at SAIL (Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laborator), have done it again. They have successfully used Jacket to speed up the training part of Deep Learning algorithms. In their paper titled “On Optimization Methods for Deep Learning”, they experiment with some of the well known training algorithms and demostrate their scalability across parallel architectures (GPUs as [...]
