Support for tf.distribute.Strategy #87

Open cweill opened 5 years ago

cweill commented 5 years ago

AdaNet doesn't currently support tf.distribute.Strategy. The current way to define distributed training is using a tf.estimator.RunConfig with the TF_CONFIG environment variable properly set to identify different workers.

Refs #76

chamorajg commented 5 years ago

I am new to this source code. I want to contribute to few open source AI, and ML projects to gain experience. Can I work on this issue ? Can you suggest me on what to be done ? I went through the code there are certain TODO's in placement.py written in comment section, if given permission and some guidance can I work on that ?

chamorajg commented 5 years ago

@cweill Can you just give me a vague idea on how to make adanet support tf.distribute.Strategy. I have good experience with tensorflow but the source code is quite big to search for, it would be helpful for me to make a quick start.

cweill commented 5 years ago

@chandramoulirajagopalan: The best way to get started will be to first extend estimator_distributed_test_runner.py to test your implementation. You can pass then pass the tf.distribute.Strategy you want to test to the tf.estimator.RunConfig, when constructing the AdaNet Estimator. If it works, then great! If it doesn't then feel free to post your update here, and we'll work through it together.

chamorajg commented 5 years ago

@cweill Yes I will work on that file first to test my implementation on the estimator similar to issue #54. Where the tf.distribute.Strategy.MirroredStrategy was used in it.

cweill commented 5 years ago

@chandramoulirajagopalan: Just a heads up: tf.distribute.MirroredStrategy I believe is designed for multi-GPU, so may be difficult to test. But if you get it to run inside estimator_distributed_test_runner.py, then good work. Let us know if you have any questions.

Good work getting that inside the runner. I'm surprised that the error is coming from deep down in TensorFlow Estimator. If you create a PR, I can have a look there.
