Large neural networks can be pruned to a small fraction of their original size, with little loss in accuracy, by following a time-consuming "train, prune, re-train" approach. Frankle & Carbin conjecture that we can avoid this by training…

The lottery ticket hypothesis questions the role of overparameterization in supervised deep learning. But how is the performance of winning lottery tickets affected by the distributional shift inherent to reinforcement learning problems? In…

The \textit{lottery ticket hypothesis} (LTH) states that learning on a properly pruned network (the \textit{winning ticket}) improves test accuracy over the original unpruned network. Although LTH has been justified empirically in a broad…
