The proposed Resource-Adaptive Successive Doubling Algorithm (RASDA) combines a resource-adaptive successive doubling scheme with the plain Asynchronous Successive Halving Algorithm (ASHA). This approach is applied to Neural Networks (NNs) and trained on large datasets from various domains, including Computer Vision (CV), Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), and Additive Manufacturing (AM). Empirical results show that RASDA outperforms ASHA by a factor of up to 1.9 in terms of runtime while maintaining or surpassing the solution quality of final ASHA models.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
RASDA is a new way to speed up the process of finding the best settings for machine learning models on very powerful computers called High-Performance Computing (HPC) systems. Normally, many different combinations of settings are tried and tested, but this takes a long time. RASDA makes it faster by choosing which combinations to test based on how well they’re doing so far. It’s useful because it lets us try more combinations without having to wait too long. This is important for training big neural networks that need lots of data and computing power.
