Dr. Maicon Melo Alves is a senior system analyst and academic professor specialized in High Performance Computing (HPC) systems. In the last five years, he got interested in understanding how HPC systems have been used to leverage Artificial Intelligence applications. To better understand this topic, he completed in 2021 the MBA in Data Science of Pontifícia Universidade Católica of Rio de Janeiro (PUC-RIO). He has over 25 years of experience in IT infrastructure and, since 2006, he works with HPC systems at Petrobras, the Brazilian energy state company. He obtained his D.Sc. degree in Computer Science from the Fluminense Federal University (UFF) in 2018 and possesses three published books and publications in international journals of HPC area.

Summary

We have reached the end of the first step of our training acceleration journey. You started this chapter by remembering how the training process works. In addition to refreshing concepts such as datasets and samples, you remembered the four phases of the training algorithm.

Next, you learned that hyperparameters, operations, and parameters are the three-fold factors influencing the training process’s computational burden.

Now that you have remembered the training process and understood what contributes to its computational complexity, it’s time to move on to the next topic.

Let’s take our first steps to learn how to accelerate this heavy computational process!
