GPU Computing

Run image processing code on a graphics processing unit (GPU)

To take advantage of the performance benefits offered by a modern graphics processing unit (GPU), certain Image Processing Toolbox™ functions can perform image processing operations on a GPU. These functions provide GPU acceleration for complicated image processing workflows.

Functions

`gather`	Transfer distributed array, `Composite` object, or `gpuArray` object to local workspace
`gpuArray`	Array stored on GPU

Topics
