Accelerating Deep Learning by Fo

Accelerating Deep Learning by Focusing on the Biggest Losers

概

思想很简单, 在训练网络的时候, 每个样本都会产生一个损失, 训练的模式往往是批训练, 将一个批次所产生的损失的梯度都传回去, 然后更新参数. 本文认为, 有些样本由于重复度高, 网络很高能够识别, 使得对应的相对较小, 所以设计了一种机制, 使得损失较大的样本有大概率被选中, 而不重要的样本不被选中, 以此来降低计算时间. 实验证明, 这种方法能够在保持准确率不变的前提下降低训练时间.

作者说这个算法首先是由Are Loss Functions All the Same?提出的, 但是这篇文章只是讲了hinge loss的优势和对其它损失函数的分析.

作者说最相关的文章是Not All Samples Are Created Equal: Deep Learning with Importance Sampling, 这篇文章是从预处理(虽然也是要算loss的)的角度出发的, 理论部分较本文多一些.

主要内容

算法1的思路是很清晰的, 主要困扰在算法2概率的计算上. 假设我们以及计算了个样本的损失, 我们将其存储起来, 假设下一个样本的损失是, 如果这个样本中有个样本的损失均小于, 则改样本被选中的概率是:

其中是人为设置的, 保证每个样本都有被选中的可能.
我们还可以设置一个最大的长度, 将以往的损失存储在一个双栈中, 当的时候，存储下一个损失的同时会抛弃第一个损失, 这么做能在一定程度上减少计算量.

graph LR
A[样本x] --> C(网络f)
C --> D[损失l]
D--更新-->E[损失库]
D-->F[计算概率]
F-->G(形成batch)
G--反向传递-->C
E-->F

从最开始的图中, 第二列就是表示这个算法, 第三列是在此基础上对前向传递进行一些处理. 直接的是, 每隔次epoches更新一次损失, 然后中间的n-1次不更新损失, 直接用旧的损失对样本选择(应该是直接在传入网络就将样本选择好否则就不能降低时间了).

在随机算法中, 有单通道选择样本的一个算法, 但是这个算法只用于选择一个. 所以如果选择很多这个算法就没用了, 感觉一次性选择很多个不好弄.

代码

因为条件限制, 代码并没有测试过, 论文也给出了很棒的代码.
