What is PanGu-Σ?

Recent advancements in natural language processing, understanding, and generation have largely stemmed from the evolution of large language models. This study introduces a system that utilizes Ascend 910 AI processors alongside the MindSpore framework to train a language model that surpasses one trillion parameters, achieving a total of 1.085 trillion, designated as PanGu-{\Sigma}. This model builds upon the foundation laid by PanGu-{\alpha} by transforming the traditional dense Transformer architecture into a sparse configuration via a technique called Random Routed Experts (RRE). By leveraging an extensive dataset comprising 329 billion tokens, the model was successfully trained with a method known as Expert Computation and Storage Separation (ECSS), which led to an impressive 6.3-fold increase in training throughput through the application of heterogeneous computing. Experimental results revealed that PanGu-{\Sigma} sets a new standard in zero-shot learning for various downstream tasks in Chinese NLP, highlighting its significant potential for progressing the field. This breakthrough not only represents a considerable enhancement in the capabilities of language models but also underscores the importance of creative training methodologies and structural innovations in shaping future developments. As such, this research paves the way for further exploration into improving language model efficiency and effectiveness.
