Abstract
The K shortest path (KSP) algorithm, which finds the top K shortest simple paths from a source to a target vertex, has a wide range of real-world applications, e.g., routing, vulnerability detection, and biology analysis. While the top K shortest simple paths offer invaluable insights, computing them is time-consuming. For example, on a Twitter graph (61.6M vertices and 1.5B edges), the best parallel method needs about 20 minutes to get 128 shortest paths between two vertices. A key observation we made is existing works search K shortest paths from the original graph, while top K shortest paths only cover a meager portion of the original graph, e.g., less than 0.001% on a Twitter graph for K = 128. This paper introduces PeeK, a pruning-centric approach for KSP computation. First, PeeK applies K upper bound pruning to prune the vertices and edges that will not appear in any of the K shortest paths. Second, PeeK adaptively compacts the graph that, not only removes the deleted vertices or edges but also efficiently computes the downstream task. Furthermore, we design efficient techniques to parallelize and distribute PeeK. We compare PeeK with five algorithms on various graphs. For parallel computation with 32 threads, PeeK achieves 5.1× and 28.8× speedup over the state-of-the-art for K = 8, 128, respectively. More importantly, when K increases, the runtime of PeeK is barely affected. In particular, when K increases from 2 to 128 (64×), the runtime of PeeK only increases 1.1×, while the state-of-the-art method increases 10.3×.

- Pretraining has recently greatly promoted the development of natural language processing (NLP)
- We show that M6 outperforms the baselines in multimodal downstream tasks, and the large M6 with 10 parameters can reach a better performance
- We propose a method called M6 that is able to process information of multiple modalities and perform both single-modal and cross-modal understanding and generation
- The model is scaled to large model with 10 billion parameters with sophisticated deployment, and the 10 -parameter M6-large is the largest pretrained model in Chinese
- Experimental results show that our proposed M6 outperforms the baseline in a number of downstream tasks concerning both single modality and multiple modalities We will continue the pretraining of extremely large models by increasing data to explore the limit of its performance
