SCAPE: Accurate and Efficient LLM Training with Extreme Sparse Communication
SCAPE enables 90-99% sparse gradient communication in sharded Adam-style LLM training by deriving masks from first-moment statistics, achieving up to 43.3% faster pre-training on Llama-500M with no loss in validation loss or downstream accuracy.
