GPU-accelerated machine learning in Python – benchmark research

A study in Boston optimized a set of machine learning algorithms on a GPU. It revealed the performance of two popular GPU integration tools developed in Python, namely, Cython and PyCUDA. Utilizing the GPU’s parallel performance advantages, speedups of 20 times - 200 times over the multi-threaded Scikit Learn (a machine learning library for the Python) CPU-based implementations were highlighted. It also specifically addresses the need for GPUs due to the growing sizes of emerging datasets:
