| 2024 | SparDL: Distributed Deep Learning Training with Efficient Sparse CommunicationabstractTop-k sparsification has recently been widely used to reduce the communication volume in distributed deep learning. However, due to the Sparse Gradient Accumulation (SGA) dilemma, the performance of top-k sparsification still has limitations. Recently, a few methods have been put forward to handle the SGA dilemma. Regrettably, even the state-of-the-art method suffers from several drawbacks, e.g., it relies on an inefficient communication algorithm and requires extra transmission steps. Motivated by the limitations of existing methods, we propose a novel efficient sparse communication framework, called SparDL. Specifically, SparDL uses the Spar-Reduce-Scatter algorithm, which is based on an efficient Reduce-Scatter model, to handle the SGA dilemma without additional communication operations. Besides, to further reduce the latency cost and improve the efficiency of SparDL, we propose the Spar-All-Gather algorithm. Moreover, we propose the global residual collection algorithm to ensure fast convergence of model training. Finally, extensive experiments are conducted to validate the superiority of SparDL.
