GIGA-Lens 2.0: Strong-Lens Modeling on Multiple GPU Nodes
arXiv:2606.30633
Abstract
We present GIGA-Lens 2.0: a major upgrade to the GPU-accelerated Bayesian framework for modeling strong lensing systems that allows it to be run across multiple GPU nodes. We have succeeded in running GIGA-Lens 2.0 on 128 nodes or 512 A100 GPUs. We demonstrate the speed benefits of this new version, and apply them to modeling 100 simulated systems and a real system, DESI J238.5690+04.7276. We also present other changes to the framework that have yielded further improvement on performance.
