Proj CDeepFuzz Paper Reading: SparseProp: Efficient Sparse Backpropagation for Faster Training of Neural Networks
Abstract
本文:SparseProp
Github: https://github.com/IST-DASLab/sparseprop
Task: a back-propagation algo for sparse training data, a fast vectorized implementation on commodity CPUs
特点: general, can apply to arbitrary sparsity and common layer types; the first support for sparse training on commodity hardware
实验:
效果:
- 验证vectorized implementation加速,能在从头训练或者transfer learning两种场景下
