- | * It is impossible (wasteful in terms of space and forbidden by a dean regulation) to put non-rack machines to our servers rooms. So we won't be buying GeForce GTX 1080 (~20000CZK, out of stock now), for a non-rack machine since we most likely don't have any available. | + | |

- | ===== Basic commands | + | |
+ | ==== TensorFlow Environment ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Many people at UFAL use TensorFlow. To start using it it is recommended to create a [[python|Python virtual environment]] (or use Anaconda for it). Into the environment you must place TensorFlow. The TF is either in CPU or GPU version. | ||
+ | |||
+ | pip install tensorflow | ||
+ | pip install tensorflow-gpu | ||
+ | |||
+ | You can use prepared environment by adding into your ~/.bashrc | ||
+ | |||
+ | export PATH=/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | And then you can activate your environment: | ||
+ | |||
+ | source activate tf18 | ||
+ | source activate tf18cpu | ||
+ | |||
+ | This environment have TensorFlow 1.8.0 and all necessary requirements for NeuralMonkey. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Pytorch Environment ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | If you want to use pytorch, there is a ready-made environment in | ||
+ | |||
+ | / | ||
+ | |||
+ | It does rely on the CUDA and CuDNN setup above. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ==== Using cluster ==== | ||
+ | |||
+ | As an alternative to '' | ||
+ | |||
+ | qsubmit --gpumem=2G --queue=" | ||
+ | |||
+ | It is recommended to use priority lower than the default -100 if you are not rushing for the results and don't need to leap over your colleagues jobs. Please, do not use priority between -99 to 0 for jobs taking longer than a few hours, unless it is absolutely necessary for your work. | ||

+ | | ||
+ | === Select GPU device === | ||
+ | |||
+ | The variable CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES constrains tensorflow and other toolkits to compute only on the selected GPUs. **Do not set this variable yourself** (unless debugging SGE), it is set for you automatically by SGE if you ask for some GPUs (see above). | ||

+ | === Second Benchmark === | ||
+ | |||
+ | The previous benchmark only compares the speed of processing units within the GPUs and do not take into account the size of memory. Therefore I have conducted another benchmark, this time for each graphic card I have increased the batch size as much as possible so the model still could fit into the GPU (the previous benchmark model had batch size 20). This way the results should be more representative of the power for each GPU. | ||
