Gradient Compression for Communication-Efficient Distributed Training
Research Question
Design a gradient compression operator that reduces communication cost in distributed training while maintaining convergence quality (test accuracy).
Background
In distributed data-parallel training, gradient communication is often the bottleneck. Workers compute local gradients, which must be aggregated (e.g., via all-reduce) before the optimizer step. Gradient compression reduces the volume of data communicated by applying lossy compression to gradients before transmission.
Three main families of compression exist:
- Sparsification: Keep only a subset of gradient elements (e.g., TopK selects the largest magnitudes)
- Quantization: Reduce the precision of gradient values (e.g., QSGD uses stochastic rounding to discrete levels)
- Low-rank approximation: Approximate gradient matrices with low-rank factors (e.g., PowerSGD)
A key challenge is that naive compression introduces bias or variance that degrades convergence. Error feedback (accumulating compression residuals for the next iteration) is a widely-used technique to correct this.
Task
Modify the Compressor class in custom_compressor.py. Your compressor must implement:
__init__(self, compress_ratio): Initialize with a target compression ratio (0.01 = 100x compression)compress(self, tensor, name): Compress a gradient tensor, returning(compressed_tensors, ctx)decompress(self, compressed_tensors, ctx): Reconstruct the gradient
The compressor may maintain internal state (e.g., error feedback residuals) across calls. The name parameter identifies parameters for per-parameter state tracking.
Interface
class Compressor:
def __init__(self, compress_ratio=0.01): ...
def compress(self, tensor, name) -> (list[Tensor], ctx): ...
def decompress(self, compressed_tensors, ctx) -> Tensor: ...compress_ratio: Fraction of gradient elements/information to retain (0.01 = keep 1%)compressed_tensors: List of tensors that would be communicated over the networkctx: Local context (not communicated) needed for decompression- The decompressed tensor must have the same shape as the original input
Evaluation
Trained and evaluated on three settings with 100x compression (compress_ratio=0.01):
- ResNet-20 / CIFAR-10 (0.27M params): Small model, standard benchmark
- VGG-11-BN / CIFAR-100 (9.8M params): Larger model, harder 100-class problem
- ResNet-56 / CIFAR-10 (0.85M params): Deeper model, tests scalability
Metric: best test accuracy (higher is better). All settings use SGD with momentum, cosine LR schedule, and 200 training epochs.
Hints
- Error feedback is essential for biased compressors (like TopK). Without it, convergence degrades significantly.
- Combining sparsification with quantization can yield better compression/accuracy tradeoffs.
- Adaptive compression (differen
