Hyperparameter tuning of multi-stage pipelines introduces a significant computational burden. Motivated by the observation that work can be reused across pipelines if the intermediate computations are the same, we propose a pipeline-aware…

Pipeline parallelism has been demonstrated to be a remarkable approach to improve throughput for training deep neural networks with billions of parameters over heterogeneous clusters. The 1F1B scheduling plan is a widely adopted strategy…

DNN learning jobs are common in today's clusters due to the advances in AI driven services such as machine translation and image recognition. The most critical phase of these jobs for model performance and learning cost is the tuning of…

Deep Learning (DL) models are becoming larger, because the increase in model size might offer significant accuracy gain. To enable the training of large deep networks, data parallelism and model parallelism are two well-known approaches for…

Modern recommendation models have increased to trillions of parameters. As cluster scales expand to O(1k), distributed training bottlenecks shift from computation and memory to data movement, especially lookup and communication latency…

Data parallelism has emerged as a necessary technique to accelerate the training of deep neural networks (DNN). In a typical data parallelism approach, the local workers push the latest updates of all the parameters to the parameter server…

Many problems in machine learning and other fields can be (re)for-mulated as linearly constrained separable convex programs. In most of the cases, there are multiple blocks of variables. However, the traditional alternating direction method…

Pipeline parallelism is a key technique for scaling large-model training, but modern workloads exhibit runtime variability in computation and communication. Existing pipeline systems typically consume static, profiled, or adaptively…

Backpropagation (BP) is the cornerstone of today's deep learning algorithms, but it is inefficient partially because of backward locking, which means updating the weights of one layer locks the weight updates in the other layers.…

The generation speed of LLMs are bottlenecked by autoregressive decoding, where tokens are predicted sequentially one by one. Alternatively, diffusion large language models (dLLMs) theoretically allow for parallel token generation, but in…

Machine learning interatomic potentials (MLIPs) have become powerful tools to extend molecular simulations beyond the limits of quantum methods, offering near-quantum accuracy at much lower computational cost. Yet, developing reliable MLIPs…
