GPUs beyond deep learning and gaming: Solving hard problems with back propagation

Backpropagation isn’t just for AI. See how it can solve hard problems by working backwards._x000D_ As an example, we’ll draw any given picture – but with stamps. And instead of writing a complex algorithm, we’ll implement the easy part (rendering a stamp) and let the GPU find the optimal placement for us.
