Abstract
The present invention provides a computer implemented method, system, and computer program product of deep learning via dynamic root solvers. In an embodiment, the present invention includes (1) forming an initial set of GPUs into an initial binary tree architecture, where the initial set includes initially idle GPUs and an initial root solver GPU as the root of the initial binary tree architecture, (2) calculating initial gradients and initial adjusted weight data, (3) choosing a first currently idle GPU as a current root solver GPU, (4) forming a current set of GPUs into a current binary tree architecture, where the current set includes the additional currently idle GPUs and the current root solver GPU as the root of the current binary tree architecture, (5) calculating current gradients and current adjusted weight data, and (6) transmitting an initial update to the weight data to the available GPUs.
