Decoupled DiLoCo for Resilient Distributed Pre-training
Arthur Douillard, Keith Rush, Yani Donchev +14
Modern large-scale language model pre-training relies heavily on the single program multiple data (SPMD) paradigm, which requires tight coupling across accelerators. Due to this co…

Eager Updates For Overlapped Communication and Computation in DiLoCo
Satyen Kale, Arthur Douillard, Yanislav Donchev
Distributed optimization methods such as DiLoCo have been shown to be effective in training very large models across multiple distributed workers, such as datacenters. These method…

Streaming DiLoCo with overlapping communication: Towards a Distributed Free Lunch
Arthur Douillard, Yanislav Donchev, Keith Rush +11
Training of large language models (LLMs) is typically distributed across a large number of accelerators to reduce training time. Since internal states and parameter gradients need…
