Abstract
A computer-implemented method, a computer program product, and a computer processing system are provided for selecting from among multiple Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) execution modes for a Neural Network (NN) having a size greater than a threshold size. The multiple GPU execution modes include a normal memory mode, an Out-of-Core (OoC) execution mode, and a Unified Memory (UM) mode. The method includes starting an execution on the NN with the UM mode and measuring the memory usage for each of layers of the NN. The method further includes selecting an execution mode based on the memory usage of all of the layers.
