Title:
METHOD AND DEVICE FOR TRAINING MODEL OF QUASI-ALEXNET
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/167114
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The embodiments of the invention provide a method and device for training a model of a quasi-Alexnet. The method comprises: utilizing a first graphical processing unit (GPU) to compute a first gradient and a second gradient in a quasi-Alexnet; receiving a third gradient in the quasi-Alexnet and transmitted by a second GPU; computing, according to the first gradient and the third gradient, a first model parameter of the quasi-Alexnet; receiving a fourth gradient in the quasi-Alexnet and transmitted by the second GPU; computing, according to the second gradient and the fourth gradient, a second model parameter of the quasi-Alexnet; utilizing the first model parameter and the second model parameter to train a model of the quasi-Alexnet to perform computation and communication processes separately. The embodiment can perform in parallel computation of a convolutional layer in the quasi-Alexnet and communication using fully connected layer parameters, effectively reducing the time consumed for training a model, and increasing operational efficiency of training the model.
