ScaleAcross Explorer: Exploring Communication Optimization for Scale-Across AI Model Training
Minghao Li, Alicia Golden, Samuel Hsia +14
The rapid scaling of large language model training requires distributing GPU resources across multiple data center buildings and regions. We refer to such paradigm as "scale-across…
Training LLMs with Fault Tolerant HSDP on 100,000 GPUs
Omkar Salpekar, Rohan Varma, Kenny Yu +20
Large-scale training systems typically use synchronous training, requiring all GPUs to be healthy simultaneously. In our experience training on O(100K) GPUs, synchronous training r…
The Llama 4 Herd: Architecture, Training, Evaluation, and Deployment Notes
Redacted by arXiv
This document consolidates publicly reported technical details about Metas Llama 4 model family. It summarizes (i) released variants (Scout and Maverick) and the broader herd conte…
Collective Communication for 100k+ GPUs
Min Si, Pavan Balaji, Yongzhou Chen +36
The increasing scale of large language models (LLMs) necessitates highly efficient collective communication frameworks, particularly as training workloads extend to hundreds of tho…
HALoS: Hierarchical Asynchronous Local SGD over Slow Networks for Geo-Distributed Large Language Model Training
Geon-Woo Kim, Junbo Li, Shashidhar Gandham +5
Training large language models (LLMs) increasingly relies on geographically distributed accelerators, causing prohibitive communication costs across regions and uneven utilization…
ZeroSumEval: An Extensible Framework For Scaling LLM Evaluation with Inter-Model Competition
Hisham A. Alyahya, Haidar Khan, Yazeed Alnumay +2
We introduce ZeroSumEval, a dynamic, competition-based, and evolving evaluation framework for Large Language Models (LLMs) that leverages competitive games. ZeroSumEval encompasses…
Multilingual Machine Translation with Open Large Language Models at Practical Scale: An Empirical Study
Menglong Cui, Pengzhi Gao, Wei Liu +2
Large language models (LLMs) have shown continuously improving multilingual capabilities, and even small-scale open-source models have demonstrated rapid performance enhancement. I…
LLäMmlein: Transparent, Compact and Competitive German-Only Language Models from Scratch
Jan Pfister, Julia Wunderle, Andreas Hotho
We create two German-only decoder models, LLäMmlein 120M and 1B, transparently from scratch and publish them, along with the training data, for the German NLP research community to…
The Llama 3 Herd of Models
Aaron Grattafiori, Abhimanyu Dubey, Abhinav Jauhri +556
Modern artificial intelligence (AI) systems are powered by foundation models. This paper presents a new set of foundation models, called Llama 3. It is a herd of language models th…
First-Generation Inference Accelerator Deployment at Facebook
Michael Anderson, Benny Chen, Stephen Chen +112
In this paper, we provide a deep dive into the deployment of inference accelerators at Facebook. Many of our ML workloads have unique characteristics, such as sparse memory accesse…
Software-Hardware Co-design for Fast and Scalable Training of Deep Learning Recommendation Models
Dheevatsa Mudigere, Yuchen Hao, Jianyu Huang +50
Deep learning recommendation models (DLRMs) are used across many business-critical services at Facebook and are the single largest AI application in terms of infrastructure demand…
