 cuML - GPU Machine Learning Algorithms

cuML is a suite of libraries that implement machine learning algorithms and mathematical primitives functions that share compatible APIs with other RAPIDS projects.

cuML enables data scientists, researchers, and software engineers to run traditional tabular ML tasks on GPUs without going into the details of CUDA programming. In most cases, cuML's Python API matches the API from scikit-learn.

For large datasets, these GPU-based implementations can complete 10-50x faster than their CPU equivalents. For details on performance, see the cuML Benchmarks Notebook.

As an example, the following Python snippet loads input and computes DBSCAN clusters, all on GPU, using cuDF:

import cudf
from cuml.cluster import DBSCAN

# Create and populate a GPU DataFrame
gdf_float = cudf.DataFrame()
gdf_float['0'] = [1.0, 2.0, 5.0]
gdf_float['1'] = [4.0, 2.0, 1.0]
gdf_float['2'] = [4.0, 2.0, 1.0]

# Setup and fit clusters
dbscan_float = DBSCAN(eps=1.0, min_samples=1)
dbscan_float.fit(gdf_float)

print(dbscan_float.labels_)

Output:

0    0
1    1
2    2
dtype: int32

cuML also features multi-GPU and multi-node-multi-GPU operation, using Dask, for a growing list of algorithms. The following Python snippet reads input from a CSV file and performs a NearestNeighbors query across a cluster of Dask workers, using multiple GPUs on a single node:

Initialize a LocalCUDACluster configured with UCX for fast transport of CUDA arrays

# Initialize UCX for high-speed transport of CUDA arrays
from dask_cuda import LocalCUDACluster

# Create a Dask single-node CUDA cluster w/ one worker per device
cluster = LocalCUDACluster(protocol="ucx",
                           enable_tcp_over_ucx=True,
                           enable_nvlink=True,
                           enable_infiniband=False)

Load data and perform k-Nearest Neighbors search. cuml.dask estimators also support Dask.Array as input:

from dask.distributed import Client
client = Client(cluster)

# Read CSV file in parallel across workers
import dask_cudf
df = dask_cudf.read_csv("/path/to/csv")

# Fit a NearestNeighbors model and query it
from cuml.dask.neighbors import NearestNeighbors
nn = NearestNeighbors(n_neighbors = 10, client=client)
nn.fit(df)
neighbors = nn.kneighbors(df)

Open GPU Data Science

The RAPIDS suite of open source software libraries aim to enable execution of end-to-end data science and analytics pipelines entirely on GPUs. It relies on NVIDIA® CUDA® primitives for low-level compute optimization, but exposing that GPU parallelism and high-bandwidth memory speed through user-friendly Python interfaces.
