GPU Computing in MATLAB

Accelerate your code by running MATLAB® functions on a GPU

If all the functions that you want to use are supported on the GPU, you can simply use gpuArray to transfer input data to the GPU. To get started with GPU computing, see Run MATLAB Functions on a GPU.

For deep learning, MATLAB provides automatic parallel support for multiple GPUs. See Deep Learning with MATLAB on Multiple GPUs (Deep Learning Toolbox).

You can use the gpuDevice function inspect and select your GPU and use the gpuDeviceTable functions to inspect multiple GPUs.
