For the course setup they say to use an AWS instance. I have a machine with a decent Nvidia GPU in it. What software does it use for the deep learning? Do you use the Nvidia suite directly [1]? Or does Theano [2] have everything built in and you just need drivers?

- zitterbewegung 10y agoAll of the popular deep learning libraries need cuda drivers with cudnn from nvidia which are free . This course uses theano and keras which are open source .
- jpuderer 10y agoIf you've got a decent NVidia GPU, you should be alright. I understand that Theano can support other (non-NVidia) GPUs using OpenCL, but I haven't tried this. Part 2 of the course requires TensorFlow (which doesn't support OpenCL, AFAIK), so you're better off sticking with NVidia unfortunately.
