Cohere Labs ML Summer School 2025 - Arthur Douillard - Distributed Training in Machine Learning

Описание: This session is part of the Cohere Labs Open Science Community Summer School, a learning initiative featuring some of the leading minds in machine learning from INRIA, META (FAIR), Google DeepMind, Cohere Labs and more. Learn more about all upcoming speakers in this event series.

This talk provides an overview of the landscape of distributed deep learning for LLMs. Due to their sheer size, LLM training must be distributed across multiple GPUs. We’ll first cover the methods sharding the computation across colocated GPUs (such as Fully Sharded Data Parallelism (FSDP), Pipeline and Expert Parallelism (PP & EP). Then, we’ll explore more exploratory methods such as DiLoCo, SWARM, PowerSGD & DeMo, and others which often come with a ML cost but could enable training on GPUs spread across the world.

This session is brought to you by the Cohere Labs Open Science Community - a space where ML researchers, engineers, linguists, social scientists, and lifelong learners connect and collaborate with each other. We'd like to extend a special thank you to Ahmad Anis, Lead of our Geo Regional Asia group for their dedication in organizing this event.
