Recurrent Neural Networks (RNN) are widely used to solve a variety of problems and as the quantity of data and the amount of available compute have increased, so have model sizes. The number of parameters in recent state-of-the-art networks…

It is widely believed that the success of deep networks lies in their ability to learn a meaningful representation of the features of the data. Yet, understanding when and how this feature learning improves performance remains a challenge:…

The automation of neural architecture design has been a coveted alternative to human experts. Recent works have small search space, which is easier to optimize but has a limited upper bound of the optimal solution. Extra human design is…

Graph embedding is gaining its popularity for link prediction in complex networks and achieving excellent performance. However, limited work has been done in sparse networks that represent most of real networks. In this paper, we propose a…

Pruning of deep neural networks has been an effective technique for reducing model size while preserving most of the performance of dense networks, crucial for deploying models on memory and power-constrained devices. While recent sparse…

Sparse neural networks are mainly motivated by ressource efficiency since they use fewer parameters than their dense counterparts but still reach comparable accuracies. This article empirically investigates whether sparsity could also…

Structured prediction requires searching over a combinatorial number of structures. To tackle it, we introduce SparseMAP: a new method for sparse structured inference, and its natural loss function. SparseMAP automatically selects only a…

In recent years, deep neural networks have had great success in machine learning and pattern recognition. Architecture size for a neural network contributes significantly to the success of any neural network. In this study, we optimize the…

The automation of feature extraction of machine learning has been successfully realized by the explosive development of deep learning. However, the structures and hyperparameters of deep neural network architectures also make huge…

Long training times of deep neural networks are a bottleneck in machine learning research. The major impediment to fast training is the quadratic growth of both memory and compute requirements of dense and convolutional layers with respect…

It has been argued by Thom and Palm that sparsely-connected neural networks (SCNs) show improved performance over fully-connected networks (FCNs). Super-regular networks (SRNs) are neural networks composed of a set of stacked sparse layers…

Neural architecture search (NAS) and network pruning are widely studied efficient AI techniques, but not yet perfect. NAS performs exhaustive candidate architecture search, incurring tremendous search cost. Though (structured) pruning can…

It is well known that direct training of deep neural networks will generally lead to poor results. A major progress in recent years is the invention of various pretraining methods to initialize network parameters and it was shown that such…

The training of graph neural networks (GNNs) is extremely time consuming because sparse graph-based operations are hard to be accelerated by hardware. Prior art explores trading off the computational precision to reduce the time complexity…

Network spaces have been known as a critical factor in both handcrafted network designs or defining search spaces for Neural Architecture Search (NAS). However, an effective space involves tremendous prior knowledge and/or manual effort,…

Neural networks (NNs) are primarily developed within the frequentist statistical framework. Nevertheless, frequentist NNs lack the capability to provide uncertainties in the predictions, and hence their robustness can not be adequately…

Sparse expert models are a thirty-year old concept re-emerging as a popular architecture in deep learning. This class of architecture encompasses Mixture-of-Experts, Switch Transformers, Routing Networks, BASE layers, and others, all with…

Motivated by programmatic advertising optimization, we consider the task of sequentially allocating budget across a set of resources. At every time step, a feasible allocation is chosen and only a corresponding random return is observed.…

Recently, sparse training methods have started to be established as a de facto approach for training and inference efficiency in artificial neural networks. Yet, this efficiency is just in theory. In practice, everyone uses a binary mask to…

Neural Architecture Search (NAS) was first proposed to achieve state-of-the-art performance through the discovery of new architecture patterns, without human intervention. An over-reliance on expert knowledge in the search space design has…
