如何在 GPU 集群(多 GPU)上训练 CNN?

How to train a CNN on a cluster of GPUs (multi-gpu)?

我正在使用下面的代码在带有 UCF101 数据集的单个 GPU 上训练 CNN,但是由于数据集的大小,训练需要很长时间。

def _get_data_label_from_info(train_info_tensor, name, mode):

现在我想在有 10 个节点的 GPU 集群上训练 CNN,每个节点有一个 i7 7700 CPU, GTX1060 6GB GPU, and 16GB of RAM,我怎样才能最好地调整代码以最大化资源并减少训练时间?

Python 3.7.1, Tensorflow 1.14

可以在 https://github.com/USTC-Video-Understanding/I3D_Finetune

找到完整的 repo

跨多个设备训练单个模型的方法有多种。

  1. 模型并行性:模型在设备之间拆分。
  2. 数据并行:模型在每台设备上复制,每个副本都在数据的子集上进行训练。

在您的情况下,由于您在同一台机器上有多个可用的 GPU,因此您可以使用 Tensorflow 的分布式策略

下面是说明分布式训练的pseudo-code。

mirrored_strategy = tf.distribute.MirroredStrategy(devices=["/gpu:0", "/gpu:1"]) #list all the devices you want to use. 
with distribution.scope():
  mirrored_model = tf.keras.Sequential([...])
  mirrored_model.compile([...])
batch_size = 100 # must be divisible by the number of replicas
history = mirrored_model.fit(X_train, y_train, epochs=10) 

上述过程将跨所有可用的 GPU 设备复制所有变量和操作。 fit() 方法会自动将每个训练批次拆分到所有副本,批量大小可以被您列出的 GPU 数量整除非常重要predict() 方法也是如此。 调用save()方法后,模型将保存为常规模型,并默认在单个设备上加载。
如果您希望模型加载到所有可用设备上,您可以在分发范围上下文中使用它,如下所示。

with distribution.scope():
   mirrored_model = tf.keras.models.load_model("my_mnist_model.h5")
