High dimensional theory of two-phase optimizers
两阶段优化器的高维理论
The trend towards larger training setups has brought a renewed interest in partially asynchronous two-phase optimizers which optimize locally and then synchronize across workers. Additionally, recent work suggests that the one-worker version of one of these algorithms, DiLoCo, shows promising results as a (synchronous) optimizer. Motivated by these studies we present an analysis of LA-DiLoCo, a simple member of the DiLoCo family, on a high-dimensional linear regression…
