Heterogeneous Decentralized Diffusion Models

Announce Type: replace Abstract: Training frontier-scale diffusion models often requires substantial computational resources concentrated in tightly-coupled clusters, limiting participation to well-resourced institutions. While Decentralized Diffusion Models (DDM) enable training multiple experts in isolation, existing approaches require 1176 GPU-days and homogeneous training objectives across all experts. We present an efficient framework that dramatically reduces resource requirements...
