Lowers peak memory consumption by recomputing intermediate activations during the backward pass instead of storing them.
This project is a low-dependency engine designed for training large language models using native C and CUDA. It provides a bare-metal environment for tensor computation, allowing for the execution of neural network operations directly on hardware accelerators without the overhead of high-level software abstractions. The framework distinguishes itself by implementing manual gradient backpropagation and custom hardware-specific kernels, providing granular control over memory mapping and computational precision. It supports distributed training across multiple graphics processors and compute nod
Utilizes gradient checkpointing to reduce memory consumption by recomputing intermediate activations during the backward pass.
FlashAttention is an attention mechanism optimization library and machine learning acceleration framework designed to increase training speed and reduce memory footprint for large-scale neural network models. It functions as a collection of low-level CUDA kernels that optimize memory-bound operations to improve hardware utilization on graphics processing units. The library distinguishes itself through an input-output-aware algorithm design that minimizes data movement between different levels of memory. By employing kernel fusion and tiled matrix multiplication, it combines sequential operati
Reduces memory usage by discarding intermediate attention scores and recomputing them during the backward pass.
