Colossal-AI Tutorial Hands-on

Introduction

Welcome to the Colossal-AI tutorial, which has been accepted as official tutorials by top conference SC, AAAI, PPoPP, etc.

Colossal-AI, a unified deep learning system for the big model era, integrates many advanced technologies such as multi-dimensional tensor parallelism, sequence parallelism, heterogeneous memory management, large-scale optimization, adaptive task scheduling, etc. By using Colossal-AI, we could help users to efficiently and quickly deploy large AI model training and inference, reducing large AI model training budgets and scaling down the labor cost of learning and deployment.
