Error : .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'rJava', details:

Getting following error during

Error : .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'rJava', details:
  call: fun(libname, pkgname)
  error: No CurrentVersion entry in Software/JavaSoft registry! Try re-installing Java and make sure R and Java have matching architectures.
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘rJava’

The architecture of Java you get for install from the regular Java download web page depends on the architecture of browser you’re using (32-bit or 64-bit) when you download it. This happens without any fanfare. We need the Java manual download page, select the 64-bit version of Java for your OS, install it, and then (after restarting R) try your R packages again.

*** Make sure we need 64 bit Java version to download

WHY? R is 64 bit

Error : .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'rJava', details:

  LoadLibrary failure:  The specified module could not be found.

This time it's different problem. 

Check Java version: 

java -d64 -version

java version "1.8.0_91"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_91-b15)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.91-b15, mixed mode)

We need to set the Java Home to get this change effective:

> options(java.home="C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.8.0_91")

Error: '\P' is an unrecognized escape in character string starting ""C:\P"

> options(java.home="C:\\Program Files\\Java\\jre1.8.0_91")

> library(rJava)

Executed successfully.

What is the benefit of using Quantization in LLM

Quantization is a technique used in LLMs (Large Language Models) to reduce the memory requirements for storing and training the model parameters. It involves reducing the precision of the model weights from 32-bit floating-point numbers (FP32) to lower precision formats, such as 16-bit floating-point numbers (FP16) or 8-bit integers (INT8). Bottomline: You can use Quantization to reduce the memory footprint off the model during the training. The usage of quantization in LLMs offers several benefits: Memory Reduction: By reducing the precision of the model weights, quantization significantly reduces the memory footprint required to store the parameters. This is particularly important for LLMs, which can have billions or even trillions of parameters. Quantization allows these models to fit within the memory constraints of GPUs or other hardware accelerators. Training Efficiency: Quantization can also improve the training efficiency of LLMs. Lower precision formats require fewer computati...

What is Tensor Parallelism and relationship between Buffer and GPU

  Tensor Parallelism in GPU Tensor parallelism is a technique used to distribute the computation of large tensor operations across multiple GPUs or multiple cores within a GPU .   It is an essential method for improving the performance and scalability of deep learning models, particularly when dealing with very large models that cannot fit into the memory of a single GPU. Key Concepts Tensor Operations : Tensors are multidimensional arrays used extensively in deep learning. Common tensor operations include matrix multiplication, convolution, and element-wise operations. Parallelism : Parallelism involves dividing a task into smaller sub-tasks that can be executed simultaneously. This approach leverages the parallel processing capabilities of GPUs to speed up computations. How Tensor Parallelism Works Splitting Tensors : The core idea of tensor parallelism is to split large tensors into smaller chunks that can be processed in parallel. Each chunk is assigned to a different GP...
