TorchScale is a PyTorch library that allows researchers and developers to scale up Transformers efficiently and effectively.
|
|
It has the implementation of fundamental research to improve modeling generality and capability, as well as training stability and efficiency of scaling Transformers.

## News
|
|
|
|
- November, 2022: TorchScale 0.1.1 released [[Paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2211.13184)] [[PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/torchscale/)]
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
To install:
|
|
```
|
|
pip install torchscale
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Alternatively, you can develop it locally:
|
|
```
|
|
git clone https://github.com/microsoft/torchscale.git
|
|
cd torchscale
|
|
pip install -e .
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Getting Started
|
|
|
|
It takes only several lines of code to create a model with the above fundamental research features enabled. Here is how to quickly obtain a BERT-like encoder:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
>>> from torchscale.architecture.config import EncoderConfig
|
|
>>> from torchscale.architecture.encoder import Encoder
|
|
|
|
>>> config = EncoderConfig(vocab_size=64000)
|
|
>>> model = Encoder(config)
|
|
|
|
>>> print(model)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
We also support the `Decoder` architecture and the `EncoderDecoder` architecture:
|
|
|
|
```python
|
|
# Creating a decoder model
|
|
>>> from torchscale.architecture.config import DecoderConfig
|
|
>>> from torchscale.architecture.decoder import Decoder
|
|
|
|
>>> config = DecoderConfig(vocab_size=64000)
|
|
>>> decoder = Decoder(config)
|
|
>>> print(decoder)
|
|
|
|
# Creating a encoder-decoder model
|
|
>>> from torchscale.architecture.config import EncoderDecoderConfig
|
|
>>> from torchscale.architecture.encoder_decoder import EncoderDecoder
|
|
|
|
>>> config = EncoderDecoderConfig(vocab_size=64000)
|
|
>>> encdec = EncoderDecoder(config)
|
|
>>> print(encdec)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Examples
|
|
|
|
We have the examples of how to use TorchScale in the following scenarios/tasks:
|
|
|
|
- Language
|
|
|
|
* [Decoder/GPT](examples/fairseq/README.md#example-gpt-pretraining)
|
|
|
|
* [Encoder-Decoder/Neural Machine Translation](examples/fairseq/README.md#example-machine-translation)
|
|
|
|
* [Encoder/BERT](examples/fairseq/README.md#example-bert-pretraining)
|
|
|
|
- Vision
|
|
|
|
* ViT/BEiT [In progress]
|
|
|
|
- Speech
|
|
|
|
- Multimodal
|
|
|
|
* [Multiway Transformers/BEiT-3](torchscale/model/BEiT3.py) [In progress]
|
|
|
|
We plan to provide more examples regarding different tasks (e.g. vision pretraining and speech recognition) and various deep learning toolkits (e.g. [DeepSpeed](https://github.com/microsoft/DeepSpeed) and [Megatron-LM](https://github.com/NVIDIA/Megatron-LM)). Any comments or PRs are welcome!

## Results
|
|
|
|
### Stability Evaluation
|
|
|

|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
The training curve is smooth by using TorchScale, while the baseline Transformer cannot converge.
|
|
|
|
### Scaling-up Experiments
|
|
|
|

|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
TorchScale supports arbitrary depths and widths, successfully scaling-up the models without pain.
