Yves - Performance Python for Numerical Algorithms [EuroPython 2014] [23 July 2014] This talk is about several approaches to implement high performing numerical algorithms and applications in Python. It introduces into approaches like vectorization, multi-threading, parallelization (CPU/GPU), dynamic compiling, high throughput IO operations. The approach is a practical one in that every approach is illustrated by specific Python examples. ----- This talk is about several approaches to implement high performing numerical algorithms and applications in Python. It introduces into approaches like multi-threading, parallelization (CPU/GPU), dynamic compiling, high throughput IO operations. The approach is a practical one in that every approach is illustrated by specific Python examples. The talk uses, among others, the following libraries: * NumPy * numexpr * IPython.Parallel * Numba * NumbaPro * PyTables
