Sparsity in Deep Learning: Pruning and growth for efficient inference and training in neural networks

Torsten Hoefler, Dan Alistarh, Tal Ben-Nun +2

The growing energy and performance costs of deep learning have driven the community to reduce the size of neural networks by selectively pruning components. Similarly to their biol…

Clairvoyant Prefetching for Distributed Machine Learning I/O

Nikoli Dryden, Roman Böhringer, Tal Ben-Nun +1

I/O is emerging as a major bottleneck for machine learning training, especially in distributed environments. Indeed, at large scale, I/O takes as much as 85% of training time. Addr…

Improving Strong-Scaling of CNN Training by Exploiting Finer-Grained Parallelism

Nikoli Dryden, Naoya Maruyama, Tom Benson +3

Scaling CNN training is necessary to keep up with growing datasets and reduce training time. We also see an emerging need to handle datasets with very large samples, where memory r…
