Apex / FP16 support #1048

Open jeswan opened 4 years ago

jeswan commented 4 years ago

Issue by timhartill Thursday Apr 02, 2020 at 07:09 GMT Originally opened as https://github.com/nyu-mll/jiant/issues/1048


setup_tutorial.md mentions setting up Apex for FP16 support however there doesn't currently seem to be any parameter in the configuration that can enable it and the code doesn't currently seem to utilise apex. I was wondering whether there was active work in progress to enable this feature and if so what the likely timeline for a release might be?

@HaokunLiu - Have you had any luck using Apex FP16?

Currently it’s not supported. It might be a miscommunication that some of us put that in the readme.

For now, please ignore it.

FWIW, I opened a PR to support FP16 , but it’s not in my recent priorities. If you are still using jiant two months later, we probably will have FP16.
