Abstract:
While deep learning (DL) has enormous potential, building DL-powered applications remains difficult, expensive, and time-consuming for most companies. A major cause is that deep learning engineers are forced to spend most of their time on DevOps and writing boilerplate code for common tasks like multi-GPU training and fault tolerance, rather than building better models.

Determined is an open-source deep-learning training platform that helps teams develop models more quickly, easily share GPUs, and collaborate more effectively. You can think of Determined as a platform that bridges the gap between tools like TensorFlow and PyTorch --- which work well for a single researcher with a single GPU --- to the challenges that arise when doing deep learning at scale.

This talk will include an overview of the problems that Determined aims to solve, the high-level architecture of the system, and a demo of the system. We’ll also dive deep on some key technical features, such as:
● Distributed training without changing your model code
● Intelligent hyperparameter search
● Flexible GPU scheduling, including automatic management of cloud GPU instances
● Built-in experiment tracking and visualization
● Automatic fault tolerance and checkpoint management
