About
Significant advancements in the field of natural language processing, understanding, and generation have been achieved through the expansion of large language models. This study introduces a system which utilizes Ascend 910 AI processors and the MindSpore framework to train a language model with over a trillion parameters, specifically 1.085T, named PanGu-{\Sigma}. This model, which builds upon the foundation laid by PanGu-{\alpha}, takes the traditionally dense Transformer model and transforms it into a sparse one using a concept known as Random Routed Experts (RRE). The model was efficiently trained on a dataset of 329 billion tokens using a technique called Expert Computation and Storage Separation (ECSS), leading to a 6.3-fold increase in training throughput via heterogeneous computing. Experimentation indicates that PanGu-{\Sigma} sets a new standard in zero-shot learning for various downstream Chinese NLP tasks.

About
PanGu-α is developed under the MindSpore and trained on a cluster of 2048 Ascend 910 AI processors. The training parallelism strategy is implemented based on MindSpore Auto-parallel, which composes five parallelism dimensions to scale the training task to 2048 processors efficiently, including data parallelism, op-level model parallelism, pipeline model parallelism, optimizer model parallelism and rematerialization. To enhance the generalization ability of PanGu-α, we collect 1.1TB high-quality Chinese data from a wide range of domains to pretrain the model. We empirically test the generation ability of PanGu-α in various scenarios including text summarization, question answering, dialogue generation, etc. Moreover, we investigate the effect of model scales on the few-shot performances across a broad range of Chinese NLP tasks. The experimental results demonstrate the superior capabilities of PanGu-α in performing various tasks under few-shot or zero-shot settings.
