Want to know how to free nvidia GPU memory without restarting it

I want to know how to free up memory without restarting my PC.
Is it possible to release memory with commands?

I'm using two GPUs, and I want to keep one of them running. I don't want to restart or stop all processes.

Below is the screen from which the nvidia-smi command was executed.

●Environment
OS:ubuntu 14.04
GPU:GeForce GTX 1080 pPython(chainer) encountered an error while performing machine learning, and memory is no longer free.

I've never used a Chainer before, but it seems that the kill command eliminates unnecessary processes.

I think we should consider a system design that does not leave zombie processes behind.
