This project + tackles these bottlenecks by developing a high-performance LLM training + pipeline in C++ using Clad, a Clang plugin for compiler-level automatic + differentiation. The core of this work involved creating cladtorch, a new + C++ tensor library with a PyTorch-style API designed for compatibility + with Clad's differentiation capabilities. This library provides a more + user-friendly interface for building and training neural networks while + enabling Clad to automatically generate gradient computations for + backpropagation. + + Throughout the project, I successfully developed two distinct LLM training + implementations. The first, using the cladtorch library, established a + functional and flexible framework for Clad-driven AD. To further push + performance boundaries, I then developed a second, highly-optimized + implementation inspired by llm.c, which utilizes pre-allocated memory buffers + and custom kernels. This optimized C-style approach, when benchmarked for + GPT-2 training on a multithreaded CPU, outperformed the equivalent PyTorch + implementation. This work successfully demonstrates the viability and + performance benefits of compiler-based AD for deep learning in C++ and + provides a strong foundation for future hardware acceleration, such as porting + the implementation to CUDA. + + # slides: /assets/presentations/... + + - title: "Implement and improve an efficient, layered tape with prefetching capabilities" + speaker: + name: "Aditi Milind Joshi" + time_cest: "15:40 - 16:00" + description: | + Clad relies on a tape data structure to store intermediate values during reverse + mode differentiation.

Key deliverables include replacing + the existing dynamic array-based tape with a slab allocation approach and small + buffer optimization, enabling multilayer storage, and introducing thread safety to + support concurrent access. + + The current implementation replaces the dynamic array with a slab-based structure + and a small static buffer, eliminating costly reallocations. Thread-safe access + functions have been added through a mutex locking mechanism, ensuring safe parallel + tape operations. Ongoing work includes developing a multilayer tape system with + offloading capabilities, which will allow only the most recent slabs to remain in + memory. + + + # slides: /assets/presentations/... + + - title: "Support usage of Thrust API in Clad" + speaker: + name: "Abdelrhman Elrawy" + time_cest: "16:00 - 16:20" + description: | + This project integrates NVIDIA's Thrust library into Clad, a Clang-based automatic + differentiation tool for C++.
