This Week in MLC@Home Notes for Feb 1 2021
A weekly summary of news and notes for MLC@Home

Summary
Paper coming together. The first round of datasets are cut and I will release them by the end of this week. Only issue is their size. I will likely make the full, larger datasets available as a torrent. Stay tuned for some new results and the big dataset release this week. The paper will follow shortly afterwards.

Detailed News
  • A few people have asked if they can help with the client itself. The MLDS app is open source, and available for perusal at https://gitlab.com/mlcathome/mlds . I've created a number of issues under https://gitlab.com/mlcathome/mlds/-/issues to show thigns that need to happen. Some of which could potentially be tackled by other developers.
    Only issue is their size. I will likely make the full, larger datasets available as a torrent. When released, please consider seeding if you can.
    We've made our goal of having over 1000 entries for DS1/DS2, which allows the dataset release. This means we'll start mixing in other types of WUs than just DS2 WUs into the GPU queue again, balancing between the remaining DS1/DS2 and DS3 WUs. When DS4 is ready, we'll rebalance again.
