Jupyterlab, matplotlib, dynamic plots – II – external Qt-windows and figure updates from foreground jobs

The work on this post series has been delayed a bit. One of my objectives was to use background jobs to directly redraw or to at least trigger a redrawing of Matplotlib figures with backends like Qt5Agg. By using background jobs I wanted to circumvent a blocking of code execution in other further Juypter notebook cells. This would to e.g.… Read More »Jupyterlab, matplotlib, dynamic plots – II – external Qt-windows and figure updates from foreground jobs

Jupyterlab, Python3, asyncio – asynchronous tasks in a notebook background thread

Jupyterlab and IPython are always good for some surprises. Things that work in a standard Python task in Eclipse or at the prompt of a Linux shell may not work in a Python notebook within a Jupyterlab environment. One example where things behave a bit differently in Jupyterlab are asynchronous tasks. This post is about starting and stopping asynchronous tasks… Read More »Jupyterlab, Python3, asyncio – asynchronous tasks in a notebook background thread

Jupyterlab, matplotlib, dynamic plots – I – relevant backends

When we work with Deep Neural Networks on limited HW-resources we must get an overview over CPU- and VRAM-consumption, training progress, change of metrical variables of our network models, etc. Most of us will probably want to see the development of our system- and model-related variables in a graphical way. All of this requires dynamic plots, which are updated periodically… Read More »Jupyterlab, matplotlib, dynamic plots – I – relevant backends

Preliminary test of a Nvidia RTX 4060 TI 16GB with neural networks

Recently I had the opportunity to test a Nvidia RTX 4060 TI (vendor: MSI, model:Ventus ) on my Linux system against a Geforce GTX 960. For private consumers as me who are not interested in gaming, but in Machine Learning [ML] this type of card can be interesting. I name three reasons: Some of the readers of this blog may… Read More »Preliminary test of a Nvidia RTX 4060 TI 16GB with neural networks
