DIGITS
DIGITS is a GPU deep learning training platform and model manager used to train, fine-tune, and manage neural network models on NVIDIA hardware. It functions as a REST-controlled machine learning pipeline that integrates with S3 cloud storage for dataset ingestion and organization.
The platform supports image classification workflows, allowing users to train various model architectures and export trained image classifiers for use in external environments. It includes capabilities for model fine-tuning to adapt pretrained weights to specific tasks.
The system provides a REST-based API interface for automating training workflows and managing GPU clusters. It utilizes a Caffe-based model backend with a GPU-accelerated compute pipeline and manages training parameters through structured JSON configurations.
