DisagMoE: Computation-Communication overlapped MoE Training via Disaggregated AF-Pipe Parallelism
Zhichen Zeng, Chi-Chih Chang, Jiayi Wang +10
Mixture-of-experts (MoE) architectures enable trillion-parameter LLMs with sparsely activated experts. Expert parallelism (EP) is a widely adopted MoE training strategy, but it suf…
MegaScale-Omni: A Hyper-Scale, Workload-Resilient System for MultiModal LLM Training in Production
Chunyu Xue, Yangrui Chen, Jianyu Jiang +14
As the foundational component of versatile AI applications, training an multimodal large language model (MLLM) relies on multimodal datasets with dynamic modality mixture proportio…
MegaScale-Data: Scaling Dataloader for Multisource Large Foundation Model Training
Juntao Zhao, Qi Lu, Wei Jia +13
Modern frameworks for training large foundation models (LFMs) employ dataloaders in a data-parallel manner, with each loader processing a disjoint subset of training data. When pre…
Robust LLM Training Infrastructure at ByteDance
Borui Wan, Gaohong Liu, Zuquan Song +32
The training scale of large language models (LLMs) has reached tens of thousands of GPUs and is still continuously expanding, enabling faster learning of larger models. Accompanyin…
Laminar: A Scalable Asynchronous RL Post-Training Framework
Guangming Sheng, Yuxuan Tong, Borui Wan +10
Reinforcement learning (RL) post-training for Large Language Models (LLMs) is now scaling to large clusters and running for extended durations to enhance model reasoning performanc…
veScale: Consistent and Efficient Tensor Programming with Eager-Mode SPMD
Youjie Li, Cheng Wan, Zhiqi Lin +10
Large Language Models (LLMs) have scaled rapidly in size and complexity, requiring increasingly intricate parallelism for distributed training, such as 3D parallelism. This sophist…
