JaxPruner: A concise library for sparsity research
Joo Hyung Lee, Wonpyo Park, Nicole Mitchell +22
This paper introduces JaxPruner, an open-source JAX-based pruning and sparse training library for machine learning research. JaxPruner aims to accelerate research on sparse neural…
MegaBlocks: Efficient Sparse Training with Mixture-of-Experts
Trevor Gale, Deepak Narayanan, Cliff Young +1
We present MegaBlocks, a system for efficient Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) training on GPUs. Our system is motivated by the limitations of current frameworks, which restrict the dynami…
On the Opportunities and Risks of Foundation Models
Rishi Bommasani, Drew A. Hudson, Ehsan Adeli +111
AI is undergoing a paradigm shift with the rise of models (e.g., BERT, DALL-E, GPT-3) that are trained on broad data at scale and are adaptable to a wide range of downstream tasks.…
Sparse GPU Kernels for Deep Learning
Trevor Gale, Matei Zaharia, Cliff Young +1
Scientific workloads have traditionally exploited high levels of sparsity to accelerate computation and reduce memory requirements. While deep neural networks can be made sparse, a…
Fast Sparse ConvNets
Erich Elsen, Marat Dukhan, Trevor Gale +1
Historically, the pursuit of efficient inference has been one of the driving forces behind research into new deep learning architectures and building blocks. Some recent examples i…
Rigging the Lottery: Making All Tickets Winners
Utku Evci, Trevor Gale, Jacob Menick +2
Many applications require sparse neural networks due to space or inference time restrictions. There is a large body of work on training dense networks to yield sparse networks for…
The State of Sparsity in Deep Neural Networks
Trevor Gale, Erich Elsen, Sara Hooker
We rigorously evaluate three state-of-the-art techniques for inducing sparsity in deep neural networks on two large-scale learning tasks: Transformer trained on WMT 2014 English-to…
dMath: Distributed Linear Algebra for DL
Steven Eliuk, Cameron Upright, Hars Vardhan +2
The paper presents a parallel math library, dMath, that demonstrates leading scaling when using intranode, internode, and hybrid-parallelism for deep learning (DL). dMath provides…
