Do you get more throughput per dollar with FPGA relative to GPUs? Most certainly, except for floating point stuff, especially double precision. (Finance would care much less than scientific computing and I think FPGAs are way more prominent there.)
- solve 12y agoYou sure? The ones I'm personally familiar with are investment banks that have hundreds of thousands of computers doing machine learning modeling. They ran the costs, and found GPUs to be far more cost effective.
- _yosefk 12y agoMachine learning software will tend to use floating point, hence the result IMO. In HFT for instance I'd expect things to be the opposite.
