The abstract discusses scaling deep learning models, specifically for industry recommendation models and large language models. Co-designing large distributed ML systems and algorithms is crucial for their success. However, as the number of co-design hyper-parameters grows rapidly, finding the optimal setup becomes a challenge. To address this issue, the authors propose CubicML, an ML-based approach that optimizes training performance for large distributed ML systems. CubicML uses an ML model as a proxy to predict training performance, ensuring search efficiency and flexibility. The paper demonstrates CubicML’s effectiveness in optimizing training speed for Meta’s in-house ads recommendation models with 73 billion parameters and large language models up to 405 billion parameters.

This paper talks about making machine learning (ML) models better. Right now, we’re using big computers to help ML models learn faster. But as we make these models bigger and more complex, it gets harder to find the right settings for them to work well. The researchers propose a new way called CubicML that uses another ML model to predict how fast their computer can train. They tested this approach on really big models and found that it makes training faster and better.
