Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for data shuffling for distributed machine learning training, including each training node in the network receiving a shard of training data, wherein the training data set is divided into shards having data items. Each data item is assigned to a working set such that each of the working set includes data items from multiple shards. The training nodes perform training using the data items of a first working set that are in each node's shard. Upon completion of the training using the data items of the first working set, the training nodes performing training using the data items of a second working set that are in their shards; and while the training nodes are performing training on their respective subsets of shards of the second working set, the nodes randomly shuffling data items in the first working set to create a shuffled first working set.

Abstract: Systems and methods are configured to provide lifetime data valuations for a dataset that evolves across multiple machine learning training tasks by providing and updating path-dependent data valuations for data points in the dataset during each training task. A current machine learning training task may include splitting the dataset into multiple random mini-epochs and training the current machine learning model using a first random mini-epoch and an accuracy mini-epoch, which consists of high value data points from the path-dependent data valuations. The random and accuracy mini-epochs can be, during the training, iterated for a number of times during the training, while a second random mini-epoch is prefetch. During the training, the path-dependent data valuations can be updated based on data valuations during the current training and a similarity between the current machine learning model and prior trained machine learning models.

Abstract: A load balancing method, device and system, where the method includes: determining, based on load statuses of respective probe channels on n paths between a source end and a destination end, a target path with a lightest load in the n paths, where a probe channel is used to transmit a probe packet that includes a bandwidth probe packet; sending a bandwidth probe packet to the destination end through a probe channel on the target path; receiving the bandwidth probe packet returned by the destination end; and sending, based on the bandwidth probe packet returned by the destination end, a to-be-transmitted data packet to the destination end through a data channel on the target path. Therefore, load balancing among a plurality of paths is implemented.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a source node assigns a first number to a probe data packet in a probe data flow in a sending sequence, where the first number is used to select a transmission path for the probe data packet. The source node sends the probe data packet in the probe data flow to a destination node at a first sending rate. Each time the source node receives a probe data packet backhauled by the destination node, the source node sends a service data packet in a service data flow, where the service data packet is assigned a second number corresponding to the probe data packet, and the second number is used to select a transmission path for the service data packet.

Abstract: A data transfer method and a virtual switch, where when receiving a data packet, the virtual switch extracts characteristic information of the data packet, and determines, based on the extracted characteristic information of the data packet, whether an expedited forwarding rule is configured for a data stream to which the data packet belongs. If the expedited forwarding rule is configured for the data stream to which the data packet belongs, the virtual switch bypasses a LINUX bridge to directly send the data packet to a receive end, thereby reducing times of data packet switching between a kernel mode and a user mode, and improving data packet forwarding efficiency.
