Previously, we proposed a physically inspired rule to organize the data points in a sparse yet effective structure, called the in-tree (IT) graph, which is able to capture a wide class of underlying cluster structures in the datasets,…

In this paper, by exploiting the special features of temporal correlations of dynamic sparse channels that path delays change slowly over time but path gains evolve faster, we propose the structured matching pursuit (SMP) algorithm to…

We propose a new iterative greedy algorithm for reconstructions of sparse signals with or without noisy perturbations in compressed sensing. The proposed algorithm, called \emph{subspace thresholding pursuit} (STP) in this paper, is a…

The Lottery Ticket Hypothesis continues to have a profound practical impact on the quest for small scale deep neural networks that solve modern deep learning tasks at competitive performance. These lottery tickets are identified by pruning…

Over-parameterization is ubiquitous nowadays in training neural networks to benefit both optimization in seeking global optima and generalization in reducing prediction error. However, compressive networks are desired in many real world…

Deploying complex deep learning models on edge devices is challenging because they have substantial compute and memory resource requirements, whereas edge devices' resource budget is limited. To solve this problem, extensive pruning…

The advancement of deep learning has led to the development of neural decoders for low latency communications. However, neural decoders can be very complex which can lead to increased computation and latency. We consider iterative pruning…

We propose a novel, structured pruning algorithm for neural networks -- the iterative, Sparse Structured Pruning algorithm, dubbed as i-SpaSP. Inspired by ideas from sparse signal recovery, i-SpaSP operates by iteratively identifying a…

Iterative hard thresholding (IHT) is a projected gradient descent algorithm, known to achieve state of the art performance for a wide range of structured estimation problems, such as sparse inference. In this work, we consider IHT as a…

Pruning large neural networks to create high-quality, independently trainable sparse masks, which can maintain similar performance to their dense counterparts, is very desirable due to the reduced space and time complexity. As research…

This paper investigates a new learning formulation called structured sparsity, which is a natural extension of the standard sparsity concept in statistical learning and compressive sensing. By allowing arbitrary structures on the feature…

Pruning at initialization (PaI) reduces training costs by removing weights before training, which becomes increasingly crucial with the growing network size. However, current PaI methods still have a large accuracy gap with iterative…

Compressed Sensing aims to capture attributes of a sparse signal using very few measurements. Cand\`{e}s and Tao showed that sparse reconstruction is possible if the sensing matrix acts as a near isometry on all $\boldsymbol{k}$-sparse…

Recently many plug-and-play self-attention modules (SAMs) are proposed to enhance the model generalization by exploiting the internal information of deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs). In general, previous works ignore where to plug…

Neural network pruning is a fruitful area of research with surging interest in high sparsity regimes. Benchmarking in this domain heavily relies on faithful representation of the sparsity of subnetworks, which has been traditionally…

Sparsity in Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) is studied extensively with the focus of maximizing prediction accuracy given an overall parameter budget. Existing methods rely on uniform or heuristic non-uniform sparsity budgets which have…

Large language models (LLMs) deliver impressive performance but incur prohibitive memory and compute costs at deployment. Model pruning is an effective way to reduce these overheads, yet existing approaches face challenges: unstructured…

In recent years, there has been a flurry of research in deep neural network pruning and compression. Early approaches prune weights individually. However, it is difficult to take advantage of the resulting unstructured sparsity patterns on…

Meta-learning aims to solve unseen tasks with few labelled instances. Nevertheless, despite its effectiveness for quick learning in existing optimization-based methods, it has several flaws. Inconsequential connections are frequently seen…

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…
