• Title: Saturn: Efficient Multi-Large-Model Deep Learning
• Authors: Kabir Nagrecha and Arun Kumar
• Abstract summary: We first identify three key interconnected systems challenges for users building large models. We then formalize these as a joint problem, and build a new system architecture to tackle these challenges simultaneously. Our evaluations show that our joint-optimization approach yields 39-49% lower model selection runtimes than typical current DL practice.

• Abstract: In this paper, we propose Saturn, a new data system to improve the efficiency of multi-large-model training (e.g., during model selection/hyperparameter optimization). We first identify three key interconnected systems challenges for users building large models in this setting -- parallelism technique selection, distribution of GPUs over jobs, and scheduling. We then formalize these as a joint problem, and build a new system architecture to tackle these challenges simultaneously. Our evaluations show that our joint-optimization approach yields 39-49% lower model selection runtimes than typical current DL practice.

  Deep model merging represents an emerging research direction that combines multiple fine-tuned models to harness their capabilities across different tasks and domains. Current model merging techniques focus on merging all available models simultaneously, with weight matrices-based methods being the predominant approaches. We propose a training-free projection-based continual merging method that processes models sequentially.

We train policy and value networks using offline sampling of weight vectors, which are then employed for the online optimization of merging strategies.

  Permutation flow shop scheduling (PFSS) is widely used in manufacturing systems. We propose to train the model via expert-driven imitation learning, which accelerates convergence more stably and accurately. Our model's network parameters are reduced to only 37% of theirs, and the solution gap of our model towards the expert solutions decreases from 6.8% to 1.3% on average.
