Reinforcement Learning Based Quantization Strategy Optimal Assignment Algorithm for Mixed Precision

The quantization algorithm compresses the original network by reducing the numerical bit width of the model,which improves the computation speed. Because different layers have different redundancy and sensitivity to databit width. Reducing the data bit width will result in a loss of accuracy. Therefore, it is difficult to determinethe optimal bit width for different parts of the network with guaranteed accuracy. Mixed precision quantizationcan effectively reduce the amount of computation while keeping the model accuracy basically unchanged. In thispaper, a hardware-aware mixed precision quantization strategy optimal assignment algorithm adapted to low bitwidth is proposed, and reinforcement learning is used to automatically predict the mixed precision that meets theconstraints of hardware resources. In the state-space design, the standard deviation of weights is used to measurethe distribution difference of data, the execution speed feedback of simulated neural network accelerator inferenceis used as the environment to limit the action space of the agent, and the accuracy of the quantization model afterretraining is used as the reward function to guide the agent to carry out deep reinforcement learning training. Theexperimental results show that the proposed method obtains a suitable model layer-by-layer quantization strategyunder the condition that the computational resources are satisfied, and themodel accuracy is effectively improved.The proposed method has strong intelligence and certain universality and has strong application potential in thefield of mixed precision quantization and embedded neural network model deployment.

A Novel Mixed Precision Distributed TPU GAN for Accelerated Learning Curve

Deep neural networks are gaining importance and popularity in applications and services.Due to the enormous number of learnable parameters and datasets,the training of neural networks is computationally costly.Parallel and distributed computation-based strategies are used to accelerate this training process.Generative Adversarial Networks(GAN)are a recent technological achievement in deep learning.These generative models are computationally expensive because a GAN consists of two neural networks and trains on enormous datasets.Typically,a GAN is trained on a single server.Conventional deep learning accelerator designs are challenged by the unique properties of GAN,like the enormous computation stages with non-traditional convolution layers.This work addresses the issue of distributing GANs so that they can train on datasets distributed over many TPUs(Tensor Processing Unit).Distributed learning training accelerates the learning process and decreases computation time.In this paper,the Generative Adversarial Network is accelerated using the distributed multi-core TPU in distributed data-parallel synchronous model.For adequate acceleration of the GAN network,the data parallel SGD(Stochastic Gradient Descent)model is implemented in multi-core TPU using distributed TensorFlow with mixed precision,bfloat16,and XLA(Accelerated Linear Algebra).The study was conducted on the MNIST dataset for varying batch sizes from 64 to 512 for 30 epochs in distributed SGD in TPU v3 with 128×128 systolic array.An extensive batch technique is implemented in bfloat16 to decrease the storage cost and speed up floating-point computations.The accelerated learning curve for the generator and discriminator network is obtained.The training time was reduced by 79%by varying the batch size from 64 to 512 in multi-core TPU.

Problem-based Learning Combining Seminar Teaching Method for the Practice of Mathematical Modeling Course's Teaching Reform for Computer Discipline

Mathematical modeling course has been one of the fast development courses in China since 1992,which mainly trains students’innovation ability.However,the teaching of mathematical modeling course is quite difficult since it requires students to have a strong mathematical foundation,good ability to design algorithms,and programming skills.Besides,limited class hours and lack of interest in learning are the other reasons.To address these problems,according to the outcome-based education,we adopt the problem-based learning combined with a seminar mode in teaching.We customize cases related to computer and software engineering,start from simple problems in daily life,step by step deepen the difficulty,and finally refer to the professional application in computer and software engineering.Also,we focus on ability training rather than mathematical theory or programming language learning.Initially,we prepare the problem,related mathematic theory,and core code for students.Furtherly,we train them how to find the problem,and how to search the related mathematic theory and software tools by references for modeling and analysis.Moreover,we solve the problem of limited class hours by constructing an online resource learning library.After a semester of practical teaching,it has been shown that the interest and learning effectiveness of students have been increased and our reform plan has achieved good results.

Achieve Intended Learning Outcomes and Improving Digital Literacy Skills for Practical-Based Subjects Using Online Teaching via Propagation of OER Materials

As professors are subjected to teaching their classes online due to the recent COVID-19, our local Hong Kong students find it difficult to consult their teachers, and ultimately would fail to achieve the intended learning outcomes, especially for practical-based subjects. In this research, students having online classes of a practical-based fabric design subject were encouraged to self-study from Open Educational Resource (OER) materials for a further and better understanding of their subject. Additionally, online materials were developed to improve students’ understanding via skill of digital literacy. Their learning progress was evaluated and compared to the face-to-face version. The majority of students found online classes combined with self-studying OER materials, potentially be a substitute for face-to-face classes. Most of the students further opined different OER videos assisted them without any face-to-face instructions in practical works, to develop new fabric samples from the inspiration. Analysis of test results, and comparison of students’ final grades with different learning modes, supported these phenomena.
