Overview

In this repository, we share the source code of our paper DeLight, that delivers similar or better performance than transformer-based models with significantly fewer parameters. DeLighT more efficiently allocates parameters both (1) within each Transformer block using DExTra, a deep and light-weight transformation and (2) across blocks using block-wise scaling, that allows for shallower and narrower DeLighT blocks near the input and wider and deeper DeLighT blocks near the output. Overall, DeLighT networks are 2.5 to 4 times deeper than standard transformer models and yet have fewer parameters and operations. For details, see our papers: DeFINE and and DeLighT.

Requirements and Installation

  • PyTorch version >= 1.4.0
  • Python version >= 3.6
  • For training new models, you'll also need an NVIDIA GPU and NCCL
  • To use DeLighT, you need to install fairseq and develop locally:
git clone https://github.com/sacmehta/delight
cd delight
pip install --editable ./
  • For faster training install NVIDIA's apex library:
git clone https://github.com/NVIDIA/apex
cd apex
pip install -v --no-cache-dir --global-option="--cpp_ext" --global-option="--cuda_ext" \
  --global-option="--deprecated_fused_adam" --global-option="--xentropy" \
  --global-option="--fast_multihead_attn" ./

Training, Evaluation, and Results

For training, evaluation, and results, see below links. To ease reproduction of our results, we also provide links to training logs.

Language Modeling

Multiplication-Addition Operations

We have added module profiling for both Transformer and DeLight networks. This can be enabled using --print-stats argument. A model summary will be printed (by default for 20 tokens), similar to below screenshot. To use larger sequence lengths for source and target for profiling statistics, you can use --src-len-ps and --tgt-len-ps flags.
