520 | _ | _ | |a The design of Deep Learning (DL) models is a complex task, involving decisions on the general architecture of the model (e.g., the number of layers of the Neural Network (NN)) and on the optimization algorithms (e.g., the learning rate). These so-called hyperparameters significantly influence the performance (e.g., accuracy or error rates) of the final DL model and are, therefore, of great importance. However, optimizing these hyperparameters is a computationally intensive process due to the necessity of evaluating many combinations to identify the best-performing ones. Often, the optimization is manually performed. This Ph.D. thesis leverages the power of High-Performance Computing (HPC) systems to perform automatic and efficient Hyperparameter Optimization (HPO) for DL models that are trained on large quantities of scientific data. On modern HPO systems, equipped with a high number of Graphics Processing Units (GPUs), it becomes possible to not only evaluate multiple models with different hyperparameter combinations in parallel but also to distribute the training of the models themselves to multiple GPUs. State-of-the-art HPO methods, based on the concepts of early stopping, have demonstrated significant reductions in the runtime of the HPO process. Their performance at scale, particularly in the context of HPC environments and when applied to large scientific datasets, has remained unexplored. This thesis thus researches parallel and scalable HPO methods that leverage new inherent capabilities of HPC systems and innovative workflows incorporating novel computing paradigms. The developed HPO methods are validated on different scientific datasets ranging from the Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to Remote Sensing (RS) domain, spanning multiple hundred Gigabytes (GBs) to several Terabytes (TBs) in size. |
