Another change brought to GPU Caps concerns the UAC (User Account Control) execution level that has been reset to the default value (as invoker). The previous UAC level (administrator) didn’t work well with launching demos via the command line.
GPU Caps Viewer 1.33 + GeForce GTX 1060
>> Update: 2017.04.29 <<
GPU Caps Viewer 1.34.3.1 is a maintenance release and comes with a new VK-Z version. VS2015 generates some strange patterns in the 32-bit version of VK-Z and no matter the way I compile VK-Z, the 32-bit version of VK-Z is still flagged as infected by some antivirus. The 64-bit version of VK-Z is clean so I just replaced the 32-bit version by the 64-bit one. GPU Caps Viewer has been updated to execute VK-Z x64 on Windows 64-bit only…
>> Update: 2017.04.26 <<
GPU Caps Viewer 1.34.3.0 is a maintenance release and improves the detection of recent AMD Radeon GPUs (RX 580, RX 570, RX 480 and RX 470). GPU Shark has been updated to version 0.9.11.4. VK-Z has been updated to version 0.6.0.5 32-bit (it has been recompiled with other compilation options in order to avoid false positive detection with antivirus. I really don’t understand this pesky problem!).
>> Update: 2017.04.16 <<
GPU Caps Viewer 1.34.2.1 is available with VK-Z 0.6.0.3. The previous 32-bit version of VK-Z was detected as infected by some antivirus scanners. Now VK-Z 32-bit is clean for Nod32, Avira, Avast, Kaspersky, AVG, Norton, and MacAfee.
>> Update: 2017.04.14 <<
GPU Caps Viewer 1.34.2.0 adds the support of NVIDIA TITAN Xp. GPU Shark and VK-Z have been updated to their latest versions.
>> Update: 2017.04.01 <<
GPU Caps Viewer 1.34.1.0 improves the detection of AMD Radeon GPUs in some systems that include Intel iGPU + AMD Radeon GPU. A new GeeXLab/OpenGL demo has been added (Alien Corridor).

NVIDIA TITAN Xp vs TITAN X
NVIDIA TITAN Xp
The TITAN Xp is based on a full GP102 GPU with 3840 CUDA cores while the TITAN X has only 3584 CUDA cores. The TITAN Xp has 240 texture units while the TITAN X has 224 texture units. Both cards have the same number of ROPs (96) and the same amount of memory: 12GB of GDDR5X.
On the physical side, there are few differences between the TITAN Xp and the TITAN X. NVIDIA has not changed the name on the VGA shroud: TITAN X for both cards…
NVIDIA TITAN Xp
The only things that distinguish both cards are the box, the PCB color (brown for the Xp) and the DVI connector (the Xp has no DVI connector):

GPUs Help Cut Siri’s Error Rate by Half
GPUs Help Cut Siri’s Error Rate by Half
To make Siri great, Apple employed several artificial intelligence experts three years ago to apply deep learning to their intelligent mobile smart assistant.
The team began training a neural net to replace the original Siri. “We have the biggest and baddest GPU farm cranking all the time,” says Alex Acero, who heads the speech team.
“The error rate has been cut by a factor of two in all the languages, more than a factor of two in many cases,” says Acero. “That’s mostly due to deep learning and the way we have optimized it.”
Besides Siri, Apple’s adoption of deep learning and neural nets are now found all over their products and services — including fraud detection on the Apple store, facial recognition and locations in your photos, and to help identify the most useful feedback from thousands of reports from beta testers.
“The typical customer is going to experience deep learning on a day-to-day level that [exemplifies] what you love about an Apple product,” says Phil Schiller, senior vice president of worldwide marketing at Apple. “The most exciting [instances] are so subtle that you don’t even think about it until the third time you see it, and then you stop and say, How is this happening?”
GPU-Accelerated PC Solves Complex Problems Hundreds of Times Faster Than Massive CPU-only Supercomputers
GPU-Accelerated PC Solves Complex Problems Hundreds of Times Faster Than Massive CPU-only Supercomputers
Russian scientists from Lomonosov Moscow State University used an ordinary GPU-accelerated desktop computer to solve complex quantum mechanics equations in just 15 minutes that would typically take two to three days on a large CPU-only supercomputer.
Senior researchers Vladimir Pomerantcev and Olga Rubtsova and professor Vladimir Kukulin used a GeForce GTX 670 with CUDA and the PGI CUDA Fortran Compiler to calculate equations formulated in the ‘60s by Russian mathematician Ludwig Faddeev that describe the scattering patterns of quantum particles. The approach described in the group’s research paper is based on a complete discretization of few-particle continuum and uses massively parallel computations to spread the calculations across thousands of different streams to successfully solve the problem on a single GPU.
“We reached the speed we couldn’t even dream of,” Kukulin said. “The program computes 260 million of complex double integrals on a desktop computer within three seconds only. No comparison with supercomputers! My colleague from the University of Bochum in Germany, whose lab did the same, carried out the calculations by one of the largest supercomputers in Germany that is actually very expensive. And what his group is seeking for two or three days, we do in 15 minutes without spending a dime.”

This work opened new ways for the researchers to analyze nuclear reactions that could help solve large computing tasks in the field of plasma physics, geophysics, medicine, and many other areas of science.
Advanced Real-Time Visualization for Robotic Heart Surgery
Advanced Real-Time Visualization for Robotic Heart Surgery
Researchers at the Harvard Biorobotics Laboratory are harnessing the power of GPUs to generate real-time volumetric renderings of patients’ hearts. The team has built a robotic system to autonomously steer commercially available cardiac catheters that can acquire ultrasound images from within the heart. They tested their system in the clinic and reported their results at the 2016 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation (ICRA) in Stockholm, Sweden.
The team used an Intracardiac Echocardiography (ICE) catheter, which is equipped with an ultrasound transducer at the tip, to acquire 2D images from within a beating heart. Using NVIDIA GPUs, the team was able to reconstruct a 4D (3D + time) model of the heart from these ultrasound images.
Generating a 4D volume begins with co-registering ultrasound images that are acquired at different imaging angles but at the same phase of the cardiac cycle. The position and rotation of each image with respect to the world coordinate frame is measured using electromagnetic (EM) trackers that are attached to the catheter body. This point cloud is then discretized to lie on a 3D grid. Next, infilling is performed to fill the gaps between the slices, generating a dense volumetric representation of the heart. Finally, the volumes are displayed to the surgeon using volume rendering via raycasting, leveraging the CUDA – OpenGL interoperability. The team accelerated the volume reconstruction and rendering algorithms using two NVIDIA TITAN GPUs.
“ICE catheters are currently seldom used due to the difficulty in manual steering,” said principal investigator Prof. Robert D. Howe, Abbott and James Lawrence Professor of Engineering at Harvard University. “Our robotic system frees the clinicians of this burden, and presents them with a new method of real-time visualization that is safer and higher quality than the X-ray imaging that is used in the clinic. This is an enabling technology that can lead to new procedures that were not possible before, as well as improving the efficacy of the current ones.”
Providing real-time procedure guidance requires the use of efficient algorithms combined with a high-performance computing platform. Images are acquired at up to 60 frames per second from the ultrasound machine. Generating volumetric renderings from these images in real-time is only possible using GPUs.
Open-Access Visual Search Tool for Satellite Imagery
Open-Access Visual Search Tool for Satellite Imagery
A new project by Carnegie Mellon University researchers provides journalists, citizen scientists, and other researchers with the ability to quickly scan large geographical regions for specific visual features.
Simply click on a feature in the satellite imagery – a baseball diamond, cul-de-sac, tennis court – and Terrapattern will find other things that look similar in the area and pinpoint them on the map.
Using a deep learning neural network trained for five days on an NVIDIA GeForce GPU, their model will look at small squares of the landscape and, comparing those patterns to a huge database of tagged map features from OpenStreetMap, it learned to associate them with certain concepts.

GPU-Accelerated Model Reveals Details of Nuclear Fission
GPU-Accelerated Model Reveals Details of Nuclear Fission
Scientists from University of Washington, Warsaw University of Technology in Poland, Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, and Los Alamos National Laboratory, have developed a model that provides a detailed look at what happens during the last stages of the fission process.
According to their research paper, nuclear fission has almost reached the venerable age of 80 years and yet we still lack an understanding in terms of a fully quantum microscopic approach.
Using the new model, the scientists determined that fission fragments remain connected far longer than expected before the daughter nuclei split apart and the predicted kinetic energy agrees with results from experimental observations. This discovery indicates that complex calculations of real-time fission dynamics without physical restrictions are feasible and opens a pathway to a theoretical microscopic framework with abundant predictive power.

Evaluating the theory amounted to solving about 56,000 complex coupled nonlinear, time-dependent, three-dimensional partial differential equations for a 240Pu nucleus using a highly efficient parallelized GPU code. The calculations required nearly 2,000 NVIDIA GPUs on the Titan supercomputer at Oak Ridge National Lab.
By accurately modeling fission dynamics, the work will impact research areas such as future reactor fuel compositions, nuclear forensics, and studies of nuclear reactions.
Virtual 3D Teleportation in Real Time with NVIDIA GPUs
Virtual 3D Teleportation in Real Time with NVIDIA GPUs
Imagine being able to virtually teleport from one space to another in real time.
With 3D-capture cameras and a mixed reality display such as HoloLens, Microsoft Research’s new ‘haloportation’ innovation allows users to see, hear, and interact with remote participants in 3D as if they are actually present in the same physical space.
Custom software helps reconstruct every possibly viewpoint from each camera and then stitches them together into one fully formed 3D model.
Virtual 3D Teleportation in Real Time with NVIDIA GPUs
“We want to do all of this processing in a tiny window — around 33 milliseconds — to process all the data coming from all of the cameras at once, basically, and also create a temporal model, and then stream the data,” says project lead Shahram Izadi, whose team leans on NVIDIA GPUs to crunch the relevant numbers.
Izadi also mentioned the system is able to record and playback entire previous ‘haloportation’ sessions which is like walking back through time to experience memorable events.
