The Sparsely Gated Mixture of Experts Layer for PyTorch

This repository contains the PyTorch re-implementation of the sparsely-gated MoE layer described in the paper Outrageously Large Neural Networks for PyTorch.

from moe import MoE
import torch

# instantiate the MoE layer
model = MoE(input_size=1000, output_size=20, num_experts=10,hidden_size=66, k= 4, noisy_gating=True)

X = torch.rand(32, 1000)

#train
model.train()
# forward
y_hat, aux_loss = model(X)

# evaluation

model.eval()
y_hat, aux_loss = model(X)

Requirements

To install the requirements run:

pip install -r requirements.py

Example

The file example.py contains a minimal working example illustrating how to train and evaluate the MoE layer with dummy inputs and targets. To run the example:

python example.py

CIFAR 10 example

The file cifar10_example.py contains a minimal working example of the CIFAR 10 dataset. It achieves an accuracy of 39% with arbitrary hyper-parameters and not fully converged. To run the example:

python cifar10_example.py
