Multitask learning and transfer learning have proven to be useful in the field of machine learning when additional knowledge is available to help a prediction task. We aim at deriving methods following these paradigms for use in autotuning, where the goal is to find the optimal performance parameters of an application treated as a black-box function. We show comparative results with state-of-the-art autotuning techniques. For instance, we observe an average $1.5x$ improvement of the application runtime compared to the OpenTuner and HpBandSter autotuners. We explain how our approaches can be more suitable than some state-of-the-art autotuners for the tuning of any application in general and of expensive exascale applications in particular.

The ability to act in multiple environments and transfer previous knowledge to new situations can be considered a critical aspect of any intelligent agent. Towards this goal, we define a novel method of multitask and transfer learning that enables an
autonomous agent to learn how to behave in multiple tasks simultaneously, and then generalize its knowledge to new domains. This method, termed Actor-Mimic, exploits the use of deep reinforcement learning and model compression techniques to train a single policy network that learns how to act in a set of distinct tasks by using the guidance of several expert teachers. We then show that the representations learnt by the deep policy network are capable of generalizing to new tasks with no prior expert guidance, speeding up learning in novel environments. Although our method can in general be applied to a wide range of problems, we use Atari games as a testing environment to demonstrate these methods.
Federated learning (FL) is a distributed deep learning method which enables multiple participants, such as mobile phones and IoT devices, to contribute a neural network model while their private training data remains in local devices. This distribute
d approach is promising in the edge computing system where have a large corpus of decentralized data and require high privacy. However, unlike the common training dataset, the data distribution of the edge computing system is imbalanced which will introduce biases in the model training and cause a decrease in accuracy of federated learning applications. In this paper, we demonstrate that the imbalanced distributed training data will cause accuracy degradation in FL. To counter this problem, we build a self-balancing federated learning framework call Astraea, which alleviates the imbalances by 1) Global data distribution based data augmentation, and 2) Mediator based multi-client rescheduling. The proposed framework relieves global imbalance by runtime data augmentation, and for averaging the local imbalance, it creates the mediator to reschedule the training of clients based on Kullback-Leibler divergence (KLD) of their data distribution. Compared with FedAvg, the state-of-the-art FL algorithm, Astraea shows +5.59% and +5.89% improvement of top-1 accuracy on the imbalanced EMNIST and imbalanced CINIC-10 datasets, respectively. Meanwhile, the communication traffic of Astraea can be 82% lower than that of FedAvg.
In this paper, a Federated Learning (FL) simulation platform is introduced. The target scenario is Acoustic Model training based on this platform. To our knowledge, this is the first attempt to apply FL techniques to Speech Recognition tasks due to t
he inherent complexity. The proposed FL platform can support different tasks based on the adopted modular design. As part of the platform, a novel hierarchical optimization scheme and two gradient aggregation methods are proposed, leading to almost an order of magnitude improvement in training convergence speed compared to other distributed or FL training algorithms like BMUF and FedAvg. The hierarchical optimization offers additional flexibility in the training pipeline besides the enhanced convergence speed. On top of the hierarchical optimization, a dynamic gradient aggregation algorithm is proposed, based on a data-driven weight inference. This aggregation algorithm acts as a regularizer of the gradient quality. Finally, an unsupervised training pipeline tailored to FL is presented as a separate training scenario. The experimental validation of the proposed system is based on two tasks: first, the LibriSpeech task showing a speed-up of 7x and 6% Word Error Rate reduction (WERR) compared to the baseline results. The second task is based on session adaptation providing an improvement of 20% WERR over a competitive production-ready LAS model. The proposed Federated Learning system is shown to outperform the golden standard of distributed training in both convergence speed and overall model performance.
Development of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is inherently tied to the development of data. However, in most industries data exists in form of isolated islands, with limited scope of sharing between different organizations. This is an hindrance to the
further development of AI. Federated learning has emerged as a possible solution to this problem in the last few years without compromising user privacy. Among different variants of the federated learning, noteworthy is federated transfer learning (FTL) that allows knowledge to be transferred across domains that do not have many overlapping features and users. In this work we provide a comprehensive survey of the existing works on this topic. In more details, we study the background of FTL and its different existing applications. We further analyze FTL from privacy and machine learning perspective.
We formulate an asymmetric (or non-commutative) distance between tasks based on Fisher Information Matrices. We provide proof of consistency for our distance through theorems and experiments on various classification tasks. We then apply our proposed
measure of task distance in transfer learning on visual tasks in the Taskonomy dataset. Additionally, we show how the proposed distance between a target task and a set of baseline tasks can be used to reduce the neural architecture search space for the target task. The complexity reduction in search space for task-specific architectures is achieved by building on the optimized architectures for similar tasks instead of doing a full search without using this side information. Experimental results demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed approach and its improvements over other methods.
