FAQPage Schema
How do I run distributed RLHF training for large language models across multiple GPUs?

Distributed RLHF training for large language models is executed using Ray for multi-node setups and vLLM for inference acceleration, supporting models from 7B to 70B+ parameters. DeepSpeed ZeRO-3 optimizes multi-node training efficiency.

What is the best way to fine-tune a Llama-3 8B model using PPO with a custom reward model?

Fine-tuning a Llama-3 8B model using PPO involves distributing the workload across multiple GPUs with Ray. The process leverages vLLM for faster sample generation and utilizes DeepSpeed ZeRO-3 optimization for efficient resource sharing.

Does RLHF training with Ray support algorithms other than PPO?

RLHF training with Ray supports multiple algorithms beyond PPO, including GRPO, RLOO, and DPO. These algorithms are integrated to facilitate high-performance reinforcement learning for large language models.

Can I use vLLM to accelerate sample generation during PPO training?

vLLM is integrated directly into the RLHF pipeline to significantly accelerate sample generation during PPO training. This combination with Ray enables efficient GPU resource sharing through a Hybrid Engine.

What are the limitations of using DeepSpeed ZeRO-3 for 70B parameter model training?

DeepSpeed ZeRO-3 optimization for 70B parameter models requires distributed multi-node setups to manage memory constraints. While it enables efficient training, users must provision adequate GPU resources to avoid bottlenecks.
