The most common method for DNN pruning is hard thresholding of network weights, followed by retraining to recover any lost accuracy. Recently developed smart pruning algorithms use the DNN response over the training set for a variety of…

Many neural network pruning algorithms proceed in three steps: train the network to completion, remove unwanted structure to compress the network, and retrain the remaining structure to recover lost accuracy. The standard retraining…
