* Upgrading to NCCL2 * Part - II of NCCL2 upgradation - Doc updates to build with nccl2 - Dockerfile.gpu update for a correct CI build with nccl2 - Updated FindNccl package to have env-var NCCL_ROOT to take precedence * Upgrading to v9.2 for CI workflow, since it has the nccl2 binaries available * Added NCCL2 license + copy the nccl binaries into /usr location for the FindNccl module to find * Set LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable to pick nccl2 binary at runtime * Need the nccl2 library download instructions inside Dockerfile.release as well * Use NCCL2 as a static library
eXtreme Gradient Boosting
Community | Documentation | Resources | Contributors | Release Notes
XGBoost is an optimized distributed gradient boosting library designed to be highly efficient, flexible and portable. It implements machine learning algorithms under the Gradient Boosting framework. XGBoost provides a parallel tree boosting (also known as GBDT, GBM) that solve many data science problems in a fast and accurate way. The same code runs on major distributed environment (Hadoop, SGE, MPI) and can solve problems beyond billions of examples.
