IBM Watson Chief Technology Officer Rob High to Speak at GPU Technology Conference

Published March 11, 2016

IBM Watson Chief Technology Officer Rob High to Speak at GPU Technology Conference

Highlighting the key role GPUs will play in creating systems that understand data in human-like ways, Rob High, IBM Fellow, VP and chief technology officer for Watson, will deliver a keynote at our GPU Technology Conference, in Silicon Valley, on April 6.

Five years ago, Watson grabbed $1 million on Jeopardy!, competing against a pair of the TV quiz show’s top past winners. Today, IBM’s Watson cognitive computing platform helps doctors, lawyers, marketers and others glean key insights by analyzing large volumes of data.

High will join a lineup of speakers at this year’s GTC that includes NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang and Toyota Research Institute CEO Gill Pratt, who will all highlight how machines are learning to solve new kinds of problems.

Fueling an AI Boom

Watson is among the first of a new generation of cognitive systems with far-reaching applications. It uses artificial intelligence technologies like image classification, video analytics, speech recognition and natural language processing to solve once intractable problems in healthcare, finance, education and law.

GPUs are at the center of this artificial intelligence revolution (see “Accelerating AI with GPUs: A New Computing Model”). And they’re part of Watson, too.

IBM announced late last year that its Watson cognitive computing platform has added NVIDIA Tesla K80 GPU accelerators. As part of the platform, GPUs enhance Watson’s natural language processing capabilities and other key applications. (Both IBM and NVIDIA are members of the OpenPOWER Foundation. The open-licensed POWER architecture is the CPU that powers Watson.)

GPUs are designed to race through a large number of tasks at once, something called parallel computing. That makes them ideal for many of the esoteric mathematical tasks that underpin cognitive computing, such as sparse and dense matrix math, graph analytics and Fourier transforms.

NVIDIA GPUs have proven their ability to accelerate applications on everything from PCs to supercomputers using all these techniques. Bringing the parallel computing capabilities of GPUs to these compute-intensive tasks allows more complex models to be used, and used quickly enough to power systems that can respond to human input.

Rob High, IBM Fellow, VP and chief technology officer for Watson, will speak at our GPU Technology Conference

Understanding Language

The capabilities brought to Watson from GPUs are key to understanding the vast sums of data people create every day — a problem that High and his team at IBM set out to solve with Watson.

With structured data representing only 20 percent of the world’s total, traditional computers struggle to process the remaining 80 percent of unstructured data. This means that many organizations are hampered from gathering data from unstructured text, video and audio that can give them a competitive advantage.

Cognitive systems, like Watson, set out to change that by focusing on understanding language as the starting point for human cognition. IBM’s engineers designed Watson to deal with the probabilistic nature of human systems.

Dive in at Our GPU Technology Conference

Our annual GPU Technology Conference is one of the best places to learn more about Watson and other leading-edge technologies, such as self-driving cars, artificial intelligence, deep learning and virtual reality.

Global Impact: How GPUs Help Eye Surgeons See 20/20 in the Operating Room

Global Impact: How GPUs Help Eye Surgeons See 20/20 in the Operating Room

Editor’s note: This is one in a series of profiles of five finalists for NVIDIA’s 2016 Global Impact Award, which provides $150,000 to researchers using NVIDIA technology for groundbreaking work that addresses social, humanitarian and environmental problems.

Performing ocular microsurgery is about as hard as it sounds — and, until recently, eye surgeons had practically been flying blind in the operating room.

Doctors use surgical microscopes suspended over a patient’s eyes to correct conditions in the cornea and retina that lead to blindness. These have limited depth perception, however, which forces surgeons to rely on indirect lighting cues to discern the position of their tools relative to sensitive eye tissue.

But Joseph Izatt, an engineering professor at Duke University, and his team of graduate students are changing that. They’re using NVIDIA technology to give surgeons a 3D, stereoscopic live feed while they operate.

“This is some of the most challenging surgery there is because the tissues that they’re operating on are very delicate, and particularly valuable to their owners,” said Izatt.

Duke is one of five finalists for NVIDIA’s 2016 Global Impact Award. This $150,000 grant is awarded each year to researchers using NVIDIA technology for groundbreaking work that addresses social, humanitarian and environmental problems.

Two Steps Beyond Standard Practice

Standard practice for optical microsurgery is to send the patient for a pre-operation scan. This generates images that the surgeon uses to map out the disease and plan surgery. Post-operation, the patient’s eye is scanned again to make sure the operation was a success.

State-of-the-art microscopes go one step further. They use optical coherence tomography (OCT), an advanced imaging technique that produces 3D images in five to six seconds. Izatt’s work goes another step beyond that by taking complete 3D volumetric images, updated every tenth of a second and rendered from two different angles, resulting in a real-time stereoscopic display into both microscope eyepieces.

“I’ve always been very interested in seeing how technology can be applied to improving people’s lives,” said Izatt, who has been working on OCT for over 20 years.

His team is using our GeForce GTX TITAN Black GPU, CUDA programming libraries and 3D Vision technology to power their solution. Rather than having to do pre- and post-operation images to gauge their success, surgeons can have immediate feedback as they operate.

3D Images at Micrometer Resolution

A single TITAN GPU takes the stream of raw OCT data, processes it, and renders 3D volumetric images. These images, at a resolution of a few micrometers, are projected into the microscope eyepieces. CUDA’s cuFFT library and special function units provide the computational performance needed to process, de-noise, and render images in real time. With NVIDIA 3D Vision-ready monitors and 3D glasses, the live stereoscopic data can be viewed by both the surgeon using the microscope and a group observing the operation as it occurs—a useful training and demonstration tool.

The top row shows the abnormal iris adhesion (red arrow) in the normal en-face surgical view seen through the operating microscope (left), volumetric OCT (middle), and cross sectional scan (left). The bottom row shows the result of the surgeon injecting a viscoelastic material to resolve the abnormal adhesion (green arrow).

“The current generation of OCT imaging instruments used to get this type of data before and after surgery typically takes about five or six seconds to render a single volumetric image,” said Izatt. “We’re now getting those same images in about a tenth of a second — so it is literally a fiftyfold increase in speed.”

Thus far, Izatt’s solution has been used in more than 90 surgeries at the Duke Eye Center and the Cleveland Clinic Cole Eye Institute. Out in the medical market, companies are still competing to commercialize real-time 2D displays. Izatt estimates his team’s 3D solution will be ready for commercial use in a couple years.

“The most complex surgeries right now are done in these big centers, but some patients have to travel hundreds or thousands of miles to go to the best centers,” said Izatt. “With this sort of tool, we’re hoping that would instead be more widely available.”

The winner of the 2016 Global Impact Award will be announced at the GPU Technology Conference, April 4-7, in Silicon Valley.
