篇首语:本文由小常识网(cha138.com)小编为大家整理,主要介绍了学习笔记TF041:分布式并行相关的知识,希望对你有一定的参考价值。

TensorFlow分布式并行基于gRPC通信框架,一个master负责创建Session,多个worker负责执行计算图任务。

先创建TensorFlow Cluster对象,包含一组task(每个task一台独立机器),分布式执行TensorFlow计算图。一个Cluster切分多个job,一个job是一类特定任务(parameter server ps,worker),每个job可以包含多个task。每个task创建一个server,连接到Cluster,每个task执行在不同机器。也可以一台机器执行多个task(不同GPU)。tf.train.ClusterSpec初始化Cluster对象,初始化信息是Python dict,tf.train.ClusterSpec({"ps":["192.168.233.201:2222"],"worker":["192.168.233.202:2222","192.168.233.203:2222"]}),代表一个parameter server和两个worker,分别在三个不同机器上。每个task,定义自己身份,如server=tf.train.Server(cluster,job_name="ps",task_index=0),机器job定义ps第0台机器。程序中with tf.device("/job:worker/task:7"),限定Variable存放在哪个task或机器。

TensorFlow分布式模式:In-graph replication模型并行,模型计算图不同部分放在不同机器执行;Between-graph replication数据并行,每台机器相同计算图,计算不同batch数据。异步并行,每台机器独立计算梯度,计算完更新到parameter server,不等其他机器。同步并行,等所有机器都完成梯度计算,多个梯度合成统一更新模型参数。同步并行训练,loss下降速度更快,可达到最大精度更高,同步并行速度取决最慢机器,设备速度一致,效率较高。

TensorFlow实现包含1个paramter server、2个worker分布式并行训练程序,MNIST手写数据识别任务示例。写一个完整Python文件,在不同机器不同task执行。载入依赖库。

tf.app.flags定义标记,命令行执行TensorFlow设置参数。命令行指定参数被TensorFlow读取,转flags。设定数据储存目录data_dir默认/tmp/mnist-data,隐藏节点数默认100,训练最大步数train_steps默认1000000,batch_size默认100,学习速率默认0.01。

设定是否使用同步并行标记sync_replicas默认False,命令行执行时可设True开户同步并行。设定需要累计梯度个数更新模型值默认None,代表同步并行积累多少个batch梯度再进行参数更新,设None 为worker数量,所有worker完成一个batch训练后再更新模型参数。

定义ps地址,默认192.168.233.201:2222,根据集群实际情况配置。worker地址设置192.168.233.202:2222和192.168.233.203:2222.设置job_name和task_index FLAG。

flags.FLAGS直接命名FLAGS,简化使用。设置图片尺寸IMAGE_PIXELS 28。

编写程序主函数main,input_data.read_data_sets下载读取MNIST数据集,设置one_hot编码格式。检测命令行输入参数,确保job_name和task_index两个必备参数。显示job_name和task_index,ps、worker所有地址解析成列表ps_spec、worker_spec。

计算总共worker数量,tf.train.ClusterSpec生成TensorFlow Cluster对象,传入参数ps地址信息和worker地址信息。tf.train.Server创建当前机器server,连接Cluster。如当前节点是parameter server,不进行后续操作,server.join等待worker工作。

判断当前机器是否主节点,task_index是否0。定义当前机器worker_device,格式"job:worker/task:0/gpu:0"。多台机器,每台机器1块GPU,总共需要机器数量worker。如一台机器多GPU,一个task管理多个GPU或多个task分别管理。tf.train.replica_device_setter()设置worker资源,worker_device计算资源,ps_device存储模型参数资源。replica_device_setter将模型参数部署在独立ps服务器"/job:ps/cpu:0",训练操作部署在"/job:worker/task:0/gpu:0",本机GPU。创建记录全局训练步数变量global_step。

定义神经网络模型,tf.truncated_normal初始化权重,tf.zeros初始化偏置,创建输入 placeholder,tf.nn.xw_plus_b输入矩阵乘法、偏置操作,ReLU激活函数处理,得到第一个隐层输出hid。tf.nn.xw_plus_b、tf.nn.softmax对第一层输出hid处理,得到网络最终输出y。最后计算损失cross_entropy,定义优化器Adam。

判断是否设置同步训练模式sync_replicas,如果同步模型,先获取同步更新模型参数需要副本数replicas_to_aggregate;如果没有单独设置,worker数作默认值。tf.train.SyncReplicasOptimizer创建同步训练优化器,对原有优化器扩展。传入原有优化器及其他参数(replicas_to_aggregate、total_num_replicas、replica_id),原有优化器改造为同步分布式训练版本。用普通(异步)或同步优化器优化损失cross_entropy。

同步训练模式,主节点,opt.get_chief_queue_runner创建队列执行器,opt.get_init_tokens_op创建全局参数初始化器。

生成本地参数初始化操作init_op,创建临时训练目录,tf.train_Supervisor创建分布式训练监督器,传入参数is_chief、train_dir、init_op。Supervisor管理task参与到分布式训练。

设置Session参数,allow_soft_placement设True,代表操作在指定device不能执行时转到其他device执行。

如果主节点,显示初始化Session,其他节点显示等待主节点初始化操作。执行sv.prepate_or_wait_for_session()。

如果处于同步模型主节点,sv.start_queue_runners执行队列化执行器chief_queue_runner,执行全局参数初始化器init_tokens_op。

训练过程,记录worker执行训练启动时间,初始化本地训练步数local_step,进入训练循环。每步训练,从nnist.train.next_batch读取一个batch数据,生成feed_dict,调train_step执行训练。当全局训练步数达到预设最大值,停止训练。

训练结束,展示总训练时间,在验证数据上计算预测结果损失cross_entropy,展示。

在主程序执行tf.app.run()启动main函数,全部代码保存到distributed.py文件。3台不同机器分别执行distributed.py启动3个task,每次执行distributed.py,传入job_name、task_index指定worker身份。

分别在三台机器192.168.233.201?192.168.233.202、192.168.233.203执行python distributed.py。

同步模式,加上--sync_replicas=True。global_step,异步时,全局步数是所有worker训练步数和,同步时是多少轮并行训练。
