OSLO: Open Source framework for Large-scale transformer Optimization

O S L O

Open Source framework for Large-scale transformer Optimization

What's New:

• February 02, 2022 Add activation checkpointing.
• January 30, 2022 Released OSLO 2.0 alpha version.
• December 30, 2021 Add Deployment Launcher.
• December 21, 2021 Released OSLO 1.0.

What is OSLO about?

OSLO is a framework that provides various GPU based optimization technologies for large-scale modeling. 3D Parallelism and Kernel Fusion which could be useful when training a large model like EleutherAI/gpt-j-6B are the key features. OSLO makes these technologies easy-to-use by magical compatibility with Hugging Face Transformers that is being considered as a de facto standard in 2021.

Installation

OSLO can be easily installed using the pip package manager. All the dependencies such as torch and transformers should be installed automatically with the following command. Be careful that the 'core' is in the PyPI project name.

pip install oslo-core

Basic Usage

It only takes a single line of code. Now feel free to train and infer a large transformer model. 😎

import oslo

model = oslo.initialize(model, "oslo-config.json")
