cudf VS Pytorch

The interesting thing about Polars is that it does not try to be a drop-in replacement to pandas, like Dask, cuDF, or Modin, and instead has its own expressive API. Despite being a young project, it quickly got popular thanks to its easy installation process and its “lightning fast” performance.

Perhaps the largest for package size is the NVIDIA developed rapids toolkit https://rapids.ai/ . Even still adding things like pandas and some geospatial tools, you rapidly end up with an image well over a gigabyte, despite following cutting edge best practice with docker and python.

Yes sure, that is how OpenMP does; but on the other side: you seem to already do some basic type inference, and building an AST, no? Then you know as well the size and type of your vectors, and can execute actions in parallel if there is enough data to be worth parallelizing. Is there anyone who don't want their code to execute faster if it is possible? Those that do work in big data domain do use threads and vectorized instructions without user having to type in any directive; just import different library. Example, numpy or numpy with cuda backend, or similar GPU accelerated libraries like cudf.

Not the answer about Ray: you could use rapids.ai. I'm using it for for dataframe manipulation on GPU

To put Data Analytics on GPU Steroids, Try RAPIDS cudf https://rapids.ai/

You can scope out https://rapids.ai/. Nvidia's AI toolkits. They have some handy notebooks to poke at to get you started.

As a companion to the other comments, I'd like to mention that the RAPIDS library cuML provides GPU-accelerated versions of quite a few of the algorithms mentioned in this thread (HDBSCAN, UMAP, SVM, PCA, {Exact, Approximate} Nearest Neighbors, DBSCAN, KMeans, etc.).

PyTorch also has some support for them, but it's quite incomplete and has many issues so that it is basically unusable. And its future development is also unclear. https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/60832

TensorFlow

TensorFlow, developed by Google, and PyTorch, developed by Facebook, are two of the most popular frameworks for building and training complex machine learning models. TensorFlow is known for its flexibility and robust scalability, making it suitable for both research prototypes and production deployments. PyTorch is praised for its ease of use, simplicity, and dynamic computational graph that allows for more intuitive coding of complex AI models. Both frameworks support a wide range of AI models, from simple linear regression to complex deep neural networks.

> does PyTorch have a similar concept

of course https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/main/torch/utils/_py...

fyi should work on most 40xx[1]

Sure, right here: https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/blob/main/torch/autograd/...

Here's the documentation: https://pytorch.org/tutorials/intermediate/forward_ad_usage....

> When an input, which we call “primal”, is associated with a “direction” tensor, which we call “tangent”, the resultant new tensor object is called a “dual tensor” for its connection to dual numbers[0].

*My post explains Dot, Matrix and Element-wise multiplication in PyTorch.

In PyTorch with @, dot() or matmul():

import torch # we use PyTorch: https://pytorch.org data = torch.tensor(encode(text), dtype=torch.long) print(data.shape, data.dtype) print(data[:1000]) # the 1000 characters we looked at earlier will to the GPT look like this

AI's Open Embrace Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) are increasingly leveraging open-source frameworks like TensorFlow [https://www.tensorflow.org/] and PyTorch [https://pytorch.org/]. This democratization of AI tools is driving innovation and lowering entry barriers across industries.
