Artificial neural networks suffer from catastrophic forgetting when they are sequentially trained on multiple tasks. Many continual learning (CL) strategies are trying to overcome this problem. One of the most effective is the…
In light of the success of transferring language models into NLP tasks, we ask whether the full BERT model is always the best and does it exist a simple but effective method to find the winning ticket in state-of-the-art deep neural…
Neural network pruning techniques can reduce the parameter counts of trained networks by over 90%, decreasing storage requirements and improving computational performance of inference without compromising accuracy. However, contemporary…
Transfer learning leverages feature representations of deep neural networks (DNNs) pretrained on source tasks with rich data to empower effective finetuning on downstream tasks. However, the pretrained models are often prohibitively large…
Recent work on the Lottery Ticket Hypothesis (LTH) shows that there exist ``\textit{winning tickets}'' in large neural networks. These tickets represent ``sparse'' versions of the full model that can be trained independently to achieve…
The observation of sparse trainable sub-networks within over-parametrized networks - also known as Lottery Tickets (LTs) - has prompted inquiries around their trainability, scaling, uniqueness, and generalization properties. Across 28…
In pruning, the Lottery Ticket Hypothesis posits that large networks contain sparse subnetworks, or winning tickets, that can be trained in isolation to match the performance of their dense counterparts. However, most existing approaches…
Neural architecture search (NAS) has demonstrated amazing success in searching for efficient deep neural networks (DNNs) from a given supernet. In parallel, the lottery ticket hypothesis has shown that DNNs contain small subnetworks that…
Lottery Ticket Hypothesis (LTH) suggests that a dense neural network contains a sparse sub-network that can match the performance of the original dense network when trained in isolation from scratch. Most works retrain the sparse…
According to the Strong Lottery Ticket Hypothesis, every sufficiently large neural network with randomly initialized weights contains a sub-network which - still with its random weights - already performs as well for a given task as the…
The Lottery Ticket Hypothesis (LTH) suggests that over-parameterized neural networks contain sparse subnetworks ("winning tickets") capable of matching full model performance when trained from scratch. With the growing reliance on…
Multilingual pre-trained language models transfer remarkably well on cross-lingual downstream tasks. However, the extent to which they learn language-neutral representations (i.e., shared representations that encode similar phenomena across…
The lottery ticket hypothesis conjectures the existence of sparse subnetworks of large randomly initialized deep neural networks that can be successfully trained in isolation. Recent work has experimentally observed that some of these…
The conventional lottery ticket hypothesis (LTH) claims that there exists a sparse subnetwork within a dense neural network and a proper random initialization method called the winning ticket, such that it can be trained from scratch to…
The Lottery Ticket Hypothesis (LTH) states that for a reasonably sized neural network, a sub-network within the same network yields no less performance than the dense counterpart when trained from the same initialization. This work…
The Lottery Ticket hypothesis proposes that ideal, sparse subnetworks, called lottery tickets, exist in untrained dense neural networks. The Early Bird hypothesis proposes an efficient algorithm to find these winning lottery tickets in…
The Lottery Ticket Hypothesis postulates that a freshly initialized neural network contains a small subnetwork that can be trained in isolation to achieve similar performance as the full network. Our paper examines several alternatives to…
