Assignment 10

NAME-: PRAKSHAL JAIN

ENROLMENT NUMBER – 21102157

ANS-: To compare the cost efficiency of upgrading from a dual-CPU system to a GPU
system for processing 1 million images, we need to consider both the initial hardware costs
and the ongoing operational costs over a period of 1 year.

Step 1: Identify Key Metrics

Cost: Dual-CPU system: $5000 per CPU × 2 = $10,000
GPU system: $30,000

Performance:
Dual-CPU system: 100 images per hour
GPU system: 500 images per hour

Operational Costs:
Let’s assume the following hypothetical operational costs:
Dual-CPU system: $200 per month
GPU system: $400 per month
Step 2: Calculate Time to Process 1 Million Images

Step 3: Calculate Total Operational Costs Over 1 Year

Dual-CPU System:
Operational Costs=12 months×200 USD/month=2,400 USD
GPU System:
Operational Costs=12 months×400 USD/month=4,800 USD

Step 4: Calculate Total Costs Over 1 Year

1. Dual-CPU System:

Total Cost=Initial Cost+Operational Costs=10,000 USD+2,400 USD=12,400 USD

2. GPU System:

Total Cost=Initial Cost+Operational Costs=30,000 USD+4,800 USD=34,800 USD

To calculate the scaling efficiency when using 4 GPUs compared to a single GPU, we follow
these steps:

1. Determine the Speedup: This is the ratio of the time taken with a single GPU to the
time taken with multiple GPUs.
2. Calculate the Scaling Efficiency: This is the speedup divided by the number of
GPUs.
To determine the energy efficiency (in images per watt-hour) for both the GPU-based server
and the CPU-based server, we will follow these steps:

1. Calculate the total energy consumption for each server.

2. Calculate the energy efficiency in terms of images per watt-hour for each server.
3. Compare the energy efficiencies.

 GPU-based server:
o Power consumption: 400 watts
o Processing time: 2 hours
o Images processed: 250,000
 CPU-based server:
o Power consumption: 250 watts
o Processing time: 10 hours
o Images processed: 250,000
Energy consumption (in watt-hours) is calculated by multiplying the power consumption (in
watts) by the time (in hours).

1. GPU-based server:

Energy Consumption=Power×Time=400 watts×2 hours=800 watt-

Energy Consumption=Power×Time=400 watts×2 hours=800 watt-hours

2. CPU-based server:

Energy Consumption=Power×Time=250 watts×10 hours=2500 watt-hours

Energy Consumption=Power×Time=250 watts×10 hours=2500 watt-hours

Energy efficiency is calculated by dividing the number of images processed by the total
energy consumption.

1. GPU-based server:

Energy Efficiency=Images Processed/Energy Consumption=250,000 images/800 watt

-hours=312.5 images per watt-hour.

2. CPU-based server:

Energy Efficiency=Images Processed/Energy Consumption=250,000 images/2500 wa

tt-hours=100 images per watt-hour.

Given Data

 Number of filters: 128

 Filter size: 3×33 \times 33×3
 Input feature map size: 64×64
 Stride: 1
 Padding: None (valid convolution)
 Number of input channels: 64

Dimensions of the Output Feature Map

The formula for the output size of a convolutional layer is given by:
Output Size=Input Size−Filter Size+2×Padding/Stride+1

Since there is no padding and the stride is 1:

Output Size=64−3+2×0/1+1=62.

So, the output feature map size is 62×62.

Number of FLOPs for a Single Convolution Operation

Each filter is applied to a 3×3 region across all 64 channels. Therefore, the number of
operations per filter application is:

FLOPs per filter application=3×3×64=576.

Each convolutional operation involves a multiply and an add (MAC operation), so each filter
application involves twice the number of FLOPs:

Total FLOPs per filter application=2×576=1152.

Number of Output Elements

The output feature map has dimensions 62×62 and there are 128 filters. So, the total number
of output elements is:

62×62×128

Total Number of FLOPs

The total number of FLOPs required to compute the output feature map is:

Total FLOPs=1152×62×62×128

Let's calculate this step-by-step:

1. Calculate 62×6262 \times 6262×62:

62×62=3844

2. Multiply by 128:

3844×128=491,392

3. Multiply by 1152:

491,392×1152=566,231,424.

Conclusion
The total number of floating-point operations (FLOPs) required to compute the output feature
map for the given convolutional layer is 566,231,424.

Driving Using GPU Computing

1. Introduction

Autonomous driving is one of the most transformative technologies of the

modern era. At its core, it involves enabling vehicles to navigate and operate
without human intervention. A critical component of autonomous driving is
real-time object detection, which allows the vehicle to recognize and respond to
various objects and obstacles on the road, such as other vehicles, pedestrians,
traffic signs, and more. This report delves into the importance of GPU
computing in solving this problem and implements a simplified version of a
deep learning model using GPU acceleration to demonstrate its efficacy.

2. Problem Description

Real-Time Object Detection in Autonomous Driving

Autonomous vehicles must process a vast amount of visual data in real time to
detect and classify objects accurately. The challenge lies in the need for high-
speed processing to ensure safety and reliability. Traditional CPU-based
systems struggle with the computational demands of real-time object detection
due to their limited parallel processing capabilities.

Challenges:

 Ensuring safety and reliability

3. Role of GPU Computing

Why GPU Computing is Crucial

1. Parallel Processing Capabilities: GPUs are designed to handle thousands

of simultaneous threads, making them ideal for the parallel nature of
deep learning computations.
2. Speed: GPUs significantly reduce the time required to train and infer
deep learning models, which is essential for real-time applications.
3. Efficiency: Handling large-scale data and complex models is more
efficient with GPUs, enabling faster and more accurate object detection.
4. Implementation

Simplified Model for Real-Time Object Detection

We will implement a simplified version of the YOLO (You Only Look Once)
model for object detection. YOLO is known for its speed and accuracy, making
it suitable for real-time applications.

4.1 Data Preparation

For simplicity, we'll use a subset of a well-known object detection dataset like
COCO (Common Objects in Context).

python
Copy code
import tensorflow as tf
from tensorflow.keras.preprocessing.image import
ImageDataGenerator

# Assuming dataset is already downloaded and

preprocessed
# Load and preprocess data
datagen = ImageDataGenerator(rescale=1./255,
validation_split=0.2)

train_generator = datagen.flow_from_directory(
'data/train', target_size=(416, 416),
batch_size=32, class_mode='categorical',
subset='training'
)

val_generator = datagen.flow_from_directory(
'data/val', target_size=(416, 416),
batch_size=32, class_mode='categorical',
subset='validation'
)
4.2 Model Definition

We will define a simplified version of the YOLO model.

python
Copy code
from tensorflow.keras.layers import Conv2D, Input,
BatchNormalization, LeakyReLU, ZeroPadding2D
from tensorflow.keras.models import Model

def yolo_body(inputs, num_anchors, num_classes):

x = Conv2D(32, (3,3), padding='same',
use_bias=False)(inputs)
x = BatchNormalization()(x)
x = LeakyReLU(alpha=0.1)(x)

# Add more layers as needed to match the

simplified YOLO architecture
x = Conv2D(num_anchors * (num_classes + 5),
(1,1), padding='same', use_bias=False)(x)

return Model(inputs, x)

inputs = Input(shape=(416, 416, 3))

model = yolo_body(inputs, num_anchors=3,
num_classes=80)
model.compile(optimizer='adam',
loss='categorical_crossentropy',
metrics=['accuracy'])

# Train the model with GPU acceleration

with tf.device('/GPU:0'):
history = model.fit(train_generator, epochs=10,
validation_data=val_generator)
5. Performance Evaluation

# Plot training & validation accuracy values

plt.plot(history.history['accuracy'])
plt.plot(history.history['val_accuracy'])
plt.title('Model accuracy')
plt.ylabel('Accuracy')
plt.xlabel('Epoch')
plt.legend(['Train', 'Validation'], loc='upper left')
plt.show()

# Plot training & validation loss values

plt.plot(history.history['val_loss'])
plt.title('Model loss')
plt.ylabel('Loss')
plt.xlabel('Epoch')
plt.legend(['Train', 'Validation'], loc='upper left')
plt.show()
6. Impact of GPU Computing
