    University of Toronto Receives $200K NVIDIA Foundation Award for Cancer Research

    A team at the University of Toronto, led by Dr. Brendan Frey, is advancing computational cancer research by developing a "genetic interpretation engine" – a GPU-powered, deep learning method for identifying cancer-causing mutations. Today the NVIDIA Foundation, our employee-driven philanthropy arm, awarded Frey and his team a US$200,000 grant to further that work — and help them usher in an era of personal and effective cancer care.

    Cancer kills almost 600,000 people each year in the U.S. alone. It can be caused by any one of an endless variety of mutations, across many different genes. This can make it hard to identify quickly and treat in a highly targeted way. As computers grow more powerful, scientists are delving into giant datasets and deploying computer simulations to research how cancer develops. Part of our "Compute the Cure" initiative, the NVIDIA Foundation’s grant will help Frey’s team scale up their GPU-powered methods so they can be applied to a large number of personal genomes in clinical settings, ultimately involving hundreds of thousands of genomes.

    Nvidia backtracks on Kodi pirate support



    Shielded pirating activity


    Red-faced staff at Nvidia published an article advising customers to site known for 'pirate' addons in order to boost the capabilities of the Kodi media player.

    TorrentFreak pointed out that Nvidia sponsors Kodi so sending its users to a site which is ripping it off is pretty silly. The article has been taken down. However it does highlight some of the problems that Nvidia has with Kodi.
    The software is one of the best pieces of software for viewing pirate content online, but you have to get your paws on some less than kosher software. Kodi is very friendly with third-party addons that can turn it into a piracy powerhouse providing free access to movies, music and TV shows.
    The XBMC Foundation which runs Kodi finds this pirate association is a major headache and his been taking action against infringers, filing complaints with eBay over members who sold Kodi-loaded hardware for the purpose of viewing pirate content.
    Then in the middle of this Nvidia wrote an article explaining how to Install Kodi Add-ons on NVIDIA SHIELD.’ It did not exactly advise users to install illegal software but it pointed readers to TVaddons, a site that has become known not only for the promotion and development of totally legitimate software, but also a range of ‘pirate’ addons for Kodi.
    Nvidia explained how to install Fusion which contains addons which allow the viewing of anything from user-uploaded content to the latest movies.
    Soon after the paper was released there were complaints on Kodi’s official forums.

    How NVIDIA GRID Is Bringing GIS to Any Device, Anywhere

    Life just got easier if your company is one of the 300,000 relying on Esri solutions to visually understand and analyze location data. That’s because the Esri ArcGIS Desktop Virtualization Appliance with NVIDIA GRID graphics virtualization technology is here. Now, geographic information systems (GIS) applications, like Esri ArcGIS Pro, can be delivered to users in the field, on any connected device.

    Previously, using ArcGIS Pro had been confined to high-end workstations. With NVIDIA GRID, users anywhere get the same high-end experience, but the application stays hosted in the data center. Whether for city planning, military operations, facilities management or natural resource conservation, all sorts of organizations use ArcGIS Pro. Schools, governments and businesses use it to analyze data, create maps, visualize scenarios and share information, in both 2D and 3D environments.

    Nvidia loses patent case against Samsung



    ITC rules in Samsung's favour
    The US International Trade Commission has cleared Samsung and Qualcomm from the claim that they used Nvidia patents without permission.

    The case was targeting all Android devices from Samsung including some of the Qualcomm based chips. This ruling is a big deal for Samsung as the company sells a lot of phones and tablets based on Android operating system in the US. Nvidia originally announced the case in September 2014 and we covered it with quite a few details.
    Today's announcement is just the final confirmation of the ruling from October when Samsung was given a get out of jail free card over two out of seven patents.

    Samsung issued a following statement.
    “We are very pleased that the ITC came to the right and just conclusion that we did nothing wrong.”
    Nvidia's David M. Shannon who serves as executive vice president, chief administrative officer and secretary has issued a following statement at company's blog.
    The U.S. International Trade Commission today declined our request to review a recent decision involving NVIDIA by one of its administrative law judges. He had ruled in October that Samsung and Qualcomm infringed one of our graphics patents, which wasn’t valid, and did not infringe two of our other patents.
    While today’s ruling ends this particular case in the ITC, we remain firm in our belief that our patents are valid and have been infringed and will look to appeal the ITC’s decision.
    Nvidia was hoping for a better news from ITC buas as David mentions in his blog post, the flight is not over, they will continue to chase Samsung and look into possibility of appealing on the ruling.

    NVIDIA Backs Data Science Bowl To Fight Heart Disease

    Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of death for U.S. men and women. Doctors diagnose someone with the condition every forty three seconds. Finding new and better ways to speed the diagnosis of heart disease couldn’t be more important. So, we’re pleased to take part in a program aimed at applying technology to help — potentially improving the care of heart disease patients, and helping them live longer, healthier lives.

    We’re supporting the second annual Data Science Bowl competition, collaborating with Booz Allen Hamilton, Kaggle’s data scientist community and the National Institutes of Health. In the competition, data scientists from around the world will work to help transform the diagnosis of heart disease. During the 90-day competition, teams will develop machine learning algorithms to analyze a thousand MRI images of existing patients. The goal: systems that automatically identify early indicators of heart disease. The team with the most accurate algorithm will win $125,000. The second and third-place teams get $50,000 and $25,000, respectively.

    ITC declines Nvidia's appeal in Samsung patent-infringement case

    The United States International Trade Commission has denied Nvidia's request for a decision review regarding the company's ongoing patent spat with Samsung. Nvidia was hoping to get the ITC's initial findings in Samsung's favor overturned. In the statement issued by the ITC, the agency says it again found no instances where Samsung was violating Nvidia's patents.
    This decision upholds judge Thomas Pender's earlier findings, published on October 9. While the judge concluded that Samsung and Qualcomm did indeed violate one of Nvidia's patents, he also deemed that patent invalid. Furthermore, Pender limited the investigation's scope so it wouldn't include Qualcomm's graphics processing units.
    Nvidia acknowledges that this decision marks the end of the road for its case against Samsung and Qualcomm. Despite that setback, the graphics company said in a recent blog post that it remains firm in its belief that its patents are still valid, and that those patents were infringed. The company says it plans to appeal the ITC's decision.

    Nvidia Used three Samsung patents in tablets

    Chipmaker Nvidia used in their Tablets three Samsung patents, and violated Samsung's patents claims. This is what a judge from the American International Trade Commission (USITC) in the USA ruled this week.
    USITC will investigate if measures need to be taken, the commission can acutally prohibit sales and import from Nvidia in the United States. The patented technologies all have been used in Nvidia's Shield tablets, one of these patents expires next year (2016). Nvidia argued that Samsung’s patents date back to the 1990s, covering older technology that’s no longer used in modern chip designs. Its lawyers argued that Samsung had “chosen three patents that have been sitting on the shelf for years collecting nothing but dust.”
    Samsung

    The lawsuit was a claim from Korea based Samsung and a direct response to an earlier lawsuit that Nvidia filed against Samsung. Nvidia at that time claimed that Samsung and chipmaker Qualcomm used three of their patents embedded into theit GPU technology. On thr 15th of December USITC ruled that Samsung did not breach two of the three patens claims. Samsung did make use of a 3rd one, but according to the ruling it was ruled not valid. The trade agency staff, which acts as a third party in the case on behalf of the public, recommended that the judge find that Nvidia had infringed two of the three patents. One of the two is the patent that expires next year.
    Patents 6.173.349, 6.147.385 and 7.804.734 are at discussion here and involve a type of sram-cel and two patents on a methodology to achieve less latency in the bus-sytem, the data-signal buffers and system memory..
    The case also involves some of Nvidia’s customers, including Biostar Microtech International Corp., Jaton Corp., and EliteGroup Computer Systems Co.

    Nvidia loses out in court cases



    Should not have really tried it
    Nvidia is probably regretting its moves to turn into a patent troll last year as they appear to have backfired terribly.

    The GPU maker played itself as the underdog in a case against Qualcomm and Samsung – particularly as it had not really played the patent troll card before. Cynics thought that Nvidia was trying to squeeze a bit of extra cash from the mobile market, but people don’t usually like patent trolls.
    However when Nvidia sued Samsung, Samsung sued it back and asked the ITC to block NVIDIA’s products from being sold due to alleged patent infringement. It was then that it all went pair shaped.
    The ITC first ruled that Nvida’s patents were invalid and now says that Samsung’s were. This means rather than cracking open the champers this crimbo, Nvidia is having to check its bank account to see if it can pay off the people it sued.
    If it does not reach an agreement with Samsung, it could find its products banned from the US, something that is not good for one’s bottom line.
    Nvidia might be hoping that the ITC will change its mind when the case is reviewed several months from now. However that sort of thing is rather rare. Still one of the patents that it infringed expires in 2016, meaning that if the review doesn’t go in their favour, products that use said patent would only be banned for several months.
    The main question that Nvidia about the whole incident is “what was Nvidia thinking?” The whole Apple versus Samsung thing proved to the tech industry that engaging any patent wars is a complete waste of time. Technology companies are a little like the superpowers in the cold war. They all have dossers of patents which they never take out unless someone sues them first. Nvidia has patents, but no-where as many as the likes of Qualcomm and Samsung, and it could not survive any first wave of writs.
    Apple also discovered that even with an iTC ruling, it was never going to take a tech product off the shelves. By the time the court case was all done and dusted, the product which you are suing over is out-of-date and no longer sold.
    Now Nvidia will have to appeal and the case will end up costing a much more than it could have hoped to have squeezed out of Samsung. To make matters worse, the iTC will have taken way some of the weapons from its own portfolio which it could have collected money from licence fees from.
    If only AMD had got Zen out, Nvidia might have had some real big headaches about now.

    Nvidia faces "favorable" GPU trends going into 2016



    Strong performance in 2015 due to gaming segment
    According to a latest report from MKM Partners, Nvidia's target stock price should rise due to an increase in gameing segment revenue.

    MKM Partners has increased Nvidia’s 12-month target stock price from $36 to $39 and expects the company to have "favorable" GPU trends going into 2016 due to its gaming segment generating 58 percent of revenues in 2015.
    The firm notes that GPU card price trends and availability are good indicators of Nvidia’s performance going forward. For the third quarter of FY16 (July 27, 2015 – October 25, 2015), the company reported a net income of $245 million, a 42 percent increase year-over-year. For the four quarter of FY16 (October 26, 2015 – January 25, 2016), the company anticipates gross margins to stand at 56.7 percent.



    Image credit: Extremetech.com
    In March, the company announced Pascal, its next-generation GPU architecture for 2016. The GPUs will make use of High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) which is similar to what AMD launched with its 28nm R9 Fury series GPU lineup back in June. The only difference is that unlike AMD’s first-generation high-bandwidth memory, Pascal GPUs will offer up to 16GB of VRAM thanks to their use of second-generation high-bandwidth memory (HBM2).
    During Nvidia’s GTC conference, company co-founder and CEO Jen-Hsun Huang stated that HBM2 "will give bandwidth in excess of a terabyte per second, more than double what AMD's Fury X cards currently offer.”
    Nevertheless, we look forward to seeing hardware in late Q1 or early Q2 with more details later today. Nvidia will hold a CES 2016 press conference in Las Vegas later this afternoon at 6:00pm PST.

    NVIDIA-Powered Cars Unveiled At Detroit Motor Show

    It may be 10 degrees outside of the Cobo Convention Center in downtown Detroit, but things are heating up inside as the 2016 North American International Auto Show (aka the Detroit Auto Show) opens its doors to the public tomorrow. The Big 3 and most other major automakers are showcasing what the world will soon see on the streets. Here’s a taste of some of the NVIDIA-powered cars on display.

    Doubling down on its Motor Trend "SUV of the Year Award," the Volvo XC90 just bagged the "North American Truck of the Year" at the show. Volvo will soon add NVIDIA DRIVE PX 2 as the artificial intelligence brain of this luxury SUV when its Drive Me program kicks off next year. This first-of-its-kind program will let Volvo customers operate leased XC90s in a fully autonomous mode around Volvo’s hometown of Gothenburg, Sweden.

    Presenting another highlight of its product portfolio, Porsche is introducing the 911 Turbo and Turbo S, with neck-snapping acceleration and less fuel consumption compared to previous generations. But the car itself isn’t the only thing that’s quick. The 911’s new infotainment system, powered by NVIDIA, can access the latest traffic information and even visualize routes with 360-degree images and satellite images. It’ll make sure you not only arrive in style, but exactly where you need to be.

    NVIDIA Looking HOT to nVestors

    While many have questioned NVIDIA business moves over the last few years outside of it main consumer GPU realm, it seems as though some folks are making some big bets on NVIDIA in the coming months. Dorsey Wright & Associates purchased over $3.5M worth of NVIDIA stock in Q4. However they are not alone, as ClariVest Asset Management LLC purhased over $20.5M worth of stock.


    A number of other institutional investors have also recently bought and sold shares of the company. ClariVest Asset Management LLC purchased a new position in NVIDIA during the fourth quarter worth approximately $20,651,000. Acadian Asset Management increased its position in shares of NVIDIA by 3,321.5% in the fourth quarter. Acadian Asset Management now owns 330,960 shares of the computer hardware maker’s stock worth $10,908,000 after buying an additional 321,287 shares during the last quarter.
