TENSILE: A Tensor granularity dynamic GPU memory scheduling method toward multiple dynamic workloads system

Kaixin Zhang, Hongzhi Wang, Han Hu et al.

Recently, deep learning has been an area of intense research. However, as a kind of computing-intensive task, deep learning highly relies on the scale of GPU memory, which is usually prohibitive and scarce. Although some extensive works have been proposed for dynamic GPU memory management, they are hard to apply to systems with multiple dynamic workloads, such as in-database machine learning systems. In this paper, we demonstrated TENSILE, a method of managing GPU memory in tensor granularity to reduce the GPU memory peak, considering the multiple dynamic workloads. TENSILE tackled the cold-starting and across-iteration scheduling problem existing in previous works. We implemented TENSILE on a deep learning framework built by ourselves and evaluated its performance. The experiment results show that TENSILE can save more GPU memory with less extra overhead than prior works in single and multiple dynamic workloads scenarios.

A parallel-network continuous quantitative trading model with GARCH and PPO

Zhishun Wang, Wei Lu, Kaixin Zhang et al.

It is a difficult task for both professional investors and individual traders continuously making profit in stock market. With the development of computer science and deep reinforcement learning, Buy\&Hold (B\&H) has been oversteped by many artificial intelligence trading algorithms. However, the information and process are not enough, which limit the performance of reinforcement learning algorithms. Thus, we propose a parallel-network continuous quantitative trading model with GARCH and PPO to enrich the basical deep reinforcement learning model, where the deep learning parallel network layers deal with 3 different frequencies data (including GARCH information) and proximal policy optimization (PPO) algorithm interacts actions and rewards with stock trading environment. Experiments in 5 stocks from Chinese stock market show our method achieves more extra profit comparing with basical reinforcement learning methods and bench models.
