Gradient / Activation checkpointing

Key TakeawaysGradient Checkpointing is a memory optimization technique used in deep learning to reduce memory consumption during backpropagation.It introduces checkpoint layers at specific points in the network, storing intermediate activations only at these checkpoints, reducing memory requirements.Gradient Checkpointing enables the training of extremely deep neural networks that would be limited by memory constraints without this technique.It is particularly valuable in real-world appli...

Approximate String Matching

Introduction

In the era of vast data repositories, retrieving accurate textual information can be challenging, especially in the presence of errors or imprecise queries. To address this challenge, approximate string matching techniques offer a powerful solution.
In computer science, approximate string matching involves seeking strings in a text that closely resemble a specified pattern. In simpler terms, it's a method of searching for text matches, even when users input words with errors or pro...

Chandrayaan-3: Launching, Trajectory analysis, Lander & Rover, Technologies used by ISRO

The incredible journey of ISRO and its struggles with failures and lack of resources, from cycles and bullock carts to Chadrayaan-3 is not less fascinating than any fairy tales. With maintaining this indomitable enthusiasm ISRO launched Chandrayaan-3 on 14th July 2023. According to ISRO, the Chandrayaan-3 mission has three major objectives: demonstrate safe and soft landing on the surface of the Moon, conduct rover operations on the Moon, and conduct in-situ experiments on the Lunar surface.

Boy Scout Rule

In this article at OpenGenus, we will learn about Boy Scout Rule and why its application is vital for effective technical debt management.

As a code base grows over time, the quality of the underlying source code of a system tends to degrade, accumulating technical debt. The Boy Scout Rule in the coding world, "Always leave the code better than you found it" could largely decrease the technical debt. It's that simple, but why do many engineers don't do it?
