is MATLAB support AMD RADEON?

78 views (last 30 days)
My laptop has AMD RADEON graphics card,but when i am executing a CNN classification program ,requiring GPU, it is giving an error cuda driver can not be located since i doesn't have NVIDIA gpu .Please give me some solution of it .

The only solution is to change to a system with NVidia GPU.
There are two competing GPU interfaces: NVidia's proprietary system, and every else's OpenCL. Mathworks does not support OpenCL at all.

Any plans to include AMD GPUs in the future?

No, there are no plans to include AMD in the future.
GPU use is mostly driven by Deep Learning these days, but AMD use for Deep Learning is only roughly 3% of researchers if I recall correctly. The greatest share of Deep Learning research work by far is Nvidia, but according to a white paper I read, second place is IBM, and AMD is far behind. If Mathworks is to add additional GPU lines then IBM hardware would be a much more natural target.

MATLAB use for GPU computing CUDA technology, which is supported only by NVIDIA cards.

Why does amd's computer graphics card not support the operation of matlab?
I am very anxious to use matlab? But the online tutorial is not right. Is there any way to use matlab under amd?If you have a solution, can you send it to me, thank you very much.

Please stop making multiple answers when you just want to ask a question. Learn to use the comments instead. I've edited two of your answers into one, that never should have been an answer in the first place.
As far as using MATLAB itself, you can still use it regardless of the graphics card. It is just GPU computing that will be problematic.

MATLAB can work with any graphics card that supports OpenGL 2.1 or later, but prefers OpenGL 3.3 or later. There are, though, some graphics cards such as Intel HD1000 graphics cards, for which the graphics drivers are known to have sufficient bugs that they are not usable (HD1000 has not been produced for several years now.)
Using gpuArray or some of the Deep Learning programs is all that requires NVIDIA graphics cards.
