Scalable and Efficient MoE Training for Multitask Multilingual Models
Young Jin Kim, Ammar Ahmad Awan, Alexandre Muzio +6
The Mixture of Experts (MoE) models are an emerging class of sparsely activated deep learning models that have sublinear compute costs with respect to their parameters. In contrast…
ZeRO-Infinity: Breaking the GPU Memory Wall for Extreme Scale Deep Learning
Samyam Rajbhandari, Olatunji Ruwase, Jeff Rasley +2
In the last three years, the largest dense deep learning models have grown over 1000x to reach hundreds of billions of parameters, while the GPU memory has only grown by 5x (16 GB…
1-bit LAMB: Communication Efficient Large-Scale Large-Batch Training with LAMB's Convergence Speed
Conglong Li, Ammar Ahmad Awan, Hanlin Tang +2
To train large models (like BERT and GPT-3) on hundreds of GPUs, communication has become a major bottleneck, especially on commodity systems with limited-bandwidth TCP network. On…
1-bit Adam: Communication Efficient Large-Scale Training with Adam's Convergence Speed
Hanlin Tang, Shaoduo Gan, Ammar Ahmad Awan +6
Scalable training of large models (like BERT and GPT-3) requires careful optimization rooted in model design, architecture, and system capabilities. From a system standpoint, commu…
ZeRO-Offload: Democratizing Billion-Scale Model Training
Jie Ren, Samyam Rajbhandari, Reza Yazdani Aminabadi +5
Large-scale model training has been a playing ground for a limited few requiring complex model refactoring and access to prohibitively expensive GPU clusters. ZeRO-Offload changes…
APMSqueeze: A Communication Efficient Adam-Preconditioned Momentum SGD Algorithm
Hanlin Tang, Shaoduo Gan, Samyam Rajbhandari +4
Adam is the important optimization algorithm to guarantee efficiency and accuracy for training many important tasks such as BERT and ImageNet. However, Adam is generally not compat…
