It has been observed in practice that applying pruning-at-initialization methods to neural networks and training the sparsified networks can not only retain the testing performance of the original dense models, but also sometimes even…

Neural network pruning is useful for discovering efficient, high-performing subnetworks within pre-trained, dense network architectures. More often than not, it involves a three-step process -- pre-training, pruning, and re-training -- that…

Pruning neural networks has proven to be a successful approach to increase the efficiency and reduce the memory storage of deep learning models without compromising performance. Previous literature has shown that it is possible to achieve a…

Fine-grained image recognition is a longstanding computer vision challenge that focuses on differentiating objects belonging to multiple subordinate categories within the same meta-category. Since images belonging to the same meta-category…

Pruning seeks to design lightweight architectures by removing redundant weights in overparameterized networks. Most of the existing techniques first remove structured sub-networks (filters, channels,...) and then fine-tune the resulting…

Deep neural networks are strongly over-parameterized, often containing far more weights than required for their task. Although such redundancy can aid optimization, it leads to inefficient deployment and high computational cost, motivating…

Network pruning can significantly reduce the computation and memory footprint of large neural networks. To achieve a good trade-off between model size and performance, popular pruning techniques usually rely on hand-crafted heuristics and…

Channel pruning is among the predominant approaches to compress deep neural networks. To this end, most existing pruning methods focus on selecting channels (filters) by importance/optimization or regularization based on rule-of-thumb…

Neural networks have emerged as a powerful tool for solving complex tasks across various domains, but their increasing size and computational requirements have posed significant challenges in deploying them on resource-constrained devices.…

Deep networks are typically trained with many more parameters than the size of the training dataset. Recent empirical evidence indicates that the practice of overparameterization not only benefits training large models, but also assists -…

Deep neural networks are powerful, yet their high complexity greatly limits their potential to be deployed on billions of resource-constrained edge devices. Pruning is a crucial network compression technique, yet most existing methods focus…

We propose an algorithm capable of identifying and eliminating irrelevant layers of a neural network during the early stages of training. In contrast to weight or filter-level pruning, layer pruning reduces the harder to parallelize…

The subject of green AI has been gaining attention within the deep learning community given the recent trend of ever larger and more complex neural network models. Existing solutions for reducing the computational load of training at…

Neural network pruning reduces the computational cost of an over-parameterized network to improve its efficiency. Popular methods vary from $\ell_1$-norm sparsification to Neural Architecture Search (NAS). In this work, we propose a novel…
