Abstract
A method and a device for training a DNN model includes: at a device including one or more processors and memory: establishing an initial DNN model; dividing a training data corpus into a plurality of disjoint data subsets; for each of the plurality of disjoint data subsets, providing the data subset to a respective training processing unit of a plurality of training processing units operating in parallel, wherein the respective training processing unit applies a Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) process to update the initial DNN model to generate a respective DNN sub-model based on the data subset; and merging the respective DNN sub-models generated by the plurality of training processing units to obtain an intermediate DNN model, wherein the intermediate DNN model is established as either the initial DNN model for a next training iteration or a final DNN model in accordance with a preset convergence condition.
