Hi Milad,

How much time did your simulations take for the Deep network to run on MNIST on CPUs vs GPUs?

miladmozafari commented 5 years ago

Hi, For GPUs, we have reported the execution time in SpykeTorch’s paper (https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fnins.2019.00625/full). I have never tried deep net scripts on CPUs, however I do not recommend running them on CPUs. But if you want to have an estimation, you can train each layer just for one epoch and do the math to find the execution time of the actual simulation.

Hi,

Thanks for your prompt reply. Appreciate it!
