# Training and Inferencing Deep Neural Networks using Multiple GPUs on Multiple Computational Nodes

The program provides an example to parallelly train CrescendoNet by multiple GPU from multiple computational nodes. We train and evaluate the model with a subset of ImageNet known as ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Competition (ILSVRC). We use Palmetto cluster of Clemson University as the computational resource. Each computational node we use has two NVIDIA P100 CPU and we create one worker on one GPU. We built the source code on TensorFlow's official example and the framework.

## Getting Started

These instructions will guide you to train our CrescendoNet on Palmetto cluster for a demonstration purpose. You may customize the hyperparameters or replace the dataset to use the model for your own applications.

### Prerequisities
Python 3.6.2
