Implementing Markov Processes with Julia
0
The following link provides an easy method of implementing Markov Decision Processes (MDP) in the Julia computing language. MDPs are a class of algorithms designed to handle stochastic situations where the actor has some level of control. For example, used at a low level, MDPs can be used to control an inverted pendulum, but applied in higher level decision making the can also decide when to take evasive action in air traffic management. MDPs can also be extended to the partially observable domain to form the Partially Observable Markov Decision Process (POMDP). This link contains a wealth of information to show one can easily implement basic POMDP and MDP algorithms and apply well known online and offline solvers.

Benchmarking with a cross-platform open-source flow solver, PyFR
0
What is PyFR and how does it solve fluid flow problems?
PyFR is an open-source Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) solver that is based on Python and employs the high-order Flux Reconstruction technique. It effectively solves fluid flow problems by utilizing streaming architectures, making it suitable for complex fluid dynamics simulations.
How does PyFR achieve scalability on clusters with CPUs and GPUs?
PyFR achieves scalability by leveraging distributed memory parallelism through the Message Passing Interface (MPI). It implements persistent, non-blocking MPI requests using point-to-point (P2P) communication and organizes kernel calls to enable local computations while exchanging ghost states. This design approach allows PyFR to efficiently operate on clusters with heterogeneous architectures, combining CPUs and GPUs.
Why is PyFR valuable for benchmarking clusters?
PyFR's exceptional performance has been recognized by its selection as a finalist in the ACM Gordon Bell Prize for High-Performance Computing. It demonstrates strong-scaling capabilities by effectively utilizing low-latency inter-GPU communication and achieving strong-scaling on unstructured grids. PyFR has been successfully benchmarked with up to 18,000 NVIDIA K20X GPUs on Titan, showcasing its efficiency in handling large-scale simulations.
Fine-tuning LLMs with PEFT and LoRA
0
As LLMs get larger fine-tuning to the full extent can become difficult to train on consumer hardware. Storing and deploying these tuned models can also be quite expensive and difficult to store. With PEFT (parameter -efficent fine tuning), it approaches fine-tune on a smaller scale of model parameters while freezing most parameters of the pretrained LLMs. Basically it is providing full performance that which is similar if not better than full fine tuning while only having a small number of trainable parameters. This source explains that as well as going over LORA diagrams and a code walk through.

Raftlib: Open Source library for concurrent data processing pipelines
0
Raftlib is an open-source C++ Library that provides a framework for implementing parallel and concurrent data processing pipelines. It is designed to simplify the development of high-performance data processing applications by abstracting away the complexities of parallelism, concurrency, and data flow management.
It enables stream/data-flow parallel computation by linking parallel compute kernels together using simple right shift operators, similar to C++ streams for string manipulation. RaftLib eliminates the need for explicit usage of traditional threading libraries such as pthreads, std::thread, or OpenMP, which can lead to non-deterministic behavior when misused.
