- 18. Convergence Testing Debugging parallel iterative algorithms during testing is hard Processes on different hosts are difficult to observe Using the Unit Test framework IRUnit we can simulate the IterativeReduce framework We know the plumbing of message passing works Allows us to focus on parallel algorithm design/testing while still using standard debugging tools
- 20. What are Neural Networks? Inspired by nervous systems in biological systems Models layers of neurons in the brain Can learn non-linear functions Recently enjoying a surge in popularity
- 21. Multi-Layer Perceptron First layer has input neurons Last layer has output neurons Each neuron in the layer connected to all neurons in the next layer Neuron has activation function, typically sigmoid / logistic Input to neuron is the sum of the weight * input of connections
- 22. Backpropogation Learning Calculates the gradient of the error of the network regarding the network's modifiable weights Intuition Run forward pass of example through network Compute activations and output Iterating output layer back to input layer (backwards) For each neuron in the layer Compute node’s responsibility for error Update weights on connections
- 23. Parallelizing Neural Networks Dean, (NIPS, 2012) First Steps: Focus on linear convex models, calculating distributed gradient Model Parallelism must be combined with distributed optimization that leverages data parallelization simultaneously process distinct training examples in each of the many model replicas periodically combine their results to optimize our objective function Single pass frameworks such as MapReduce “ill-suited”
- 24. Costs of Neural Network Training Connections count explodes quickly as neurons and layers increase Example: {784, 450, 10} network has 357,300 connections Need fast iterative framework Example: 30 sec MR setup cost: 10k Epochs: 30s x 10,000 == 300,000 seconds of setup time 5,000 minutes or 83 hours 3 ways to speed up training Subdivide dataset between works (data parallelism) Max transfer rate of disks and Vector caching to max data throughput Minimize inter-epoch setup times with proper iterative framework
- 25. Vector In-Memory Caching Since we make lots of passes over same dataset In memory caching makes sense here Once a record is vectorized it is cached in memory on the worker node Speedup (single pass, “no cache” vs “cached”): ~12x
- 26. Neural Networks Parallelization Speedup
- 28. Lessons Learned Linear scale continues to be achieved with parameter averaging variations Tuning is critical Need to be good at selecting a learning rate
- 29. Future Directions Adagrad (SGD Adaptive Learning Rates) Parallel Quasi-Newton Methods L-BFGS Conjugate Gradient More Neural Network Learning Refinement Training progressively larger networks
