Training a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) model typically requires significant computing power, and cloud computing resources are widely used as a training environment. However, it is difficult for CNN algorithm developers to keep up with system updates and apply them to their training environment due to quickly evolving cloud services. Thus, it is important for cloud computing service vendors to design and deliver an optimal training environment for various training tasks to lessen system operation management overhead of algorithm developers. To achieve the goal, we propose PROFET, which can predict the training latency of arbitrary CNN implementation on various Graphical Processing Unit (GPU) devices, minibatch sizes, and input image pixel sizes to develop a cost-effective and time-efficient training cloud environment. Different from the previous training latency prediction work, PROFET does not rely on the implementation details of the CNN architecture, and it is suitable for use in a public cloud environment. Thorough evaluations and demonstrations present the practicality of PROFET while improving accuracy by 35 84 MLPredict, respectively.
