...This repository is for ongoing research on training large transformer language models at scale. We developed efficient, model-parallel (tensor, sequence, and pipeline), and multi-node pre-training of transformer based models such as GPT, BERT, and T5 using mixed precision. Megatron is also used in NeMo Megatron, a framework to help enterprises overcome the challenges of building and training sophisticated natural language processing models with billions and trillions of parameters.

...The architecture combines dense (MLP) and sparse (embedding) branches, then interacts features via dot product or feature interactions before passing through further dense layers to predict click-through, ranking scores, or conversion probabilities. The implementation is optimized for performance at scale, supporting multi-GPU and multi-node execution, quantization, embedding partitioning, and pipelined I/O to feed huge embeddings efficiently. It includes data loaders for standard benchmarks (like Criteo), training scripts, evaluation tools, and capabilities like mixed precision, gradient compression, and memory fusion to maximize throughput.
