Enabling Hyperparameter-Tuning of AI Models for Healthcare using the CoE RAISE Unique AI Framework for HPC

Abstract

The European Center of Excellence in Exascale Computing “Research on AI- and Simulation-Based Engineering at Exascale” (CoE RAISE) is a project funded by the European Commission. One of its central goals is to develop a Unique AI Framework (UAIF) that simplifies the development of AI models on cutting-edge supercomputers. However, those supercomputers’ High-Performance Computing (HPC) environments require the knowledge of many low-level modules that all need to work together in different software versions (e.g., TensorFlow, Python, NCCL, PyTorch) and various concrete supercomputer hardware deployments (e.g., JUWELS, JURECA, DEEP, JUPITER and other EuroHPC Joint Undertaking HPC resources). This paper will describe our analyzed complex challenges for AI researchers using those environments and explain how to overcome them using the UAIF. In addition, it will show the benefits of using the UAIF hypertuning capability to make AI models better (i.e., better parameters) and faster by using HPC. Also, to demonstrate that the UAIF approach is indeed simple, we describe the adoption of selected UAIF building blocks by healthcare applications. The examples include AI models for the Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). Finally, we highlight other AI models of use cases that co-designed the UAIF.
