Neural architecture search (NAS) relies on a good controller to generate better architectures or predict the accuracy of given architectures. However, training the controller requires both abundant and high-quality pairs of architectures…

We present ECToNAS, a cost-efficient evolutionary cross-topology neural architecture search algorithm that does not require any pre-trained meta controllers. Our framework is able to select suitable network architectures for different tasks…

Modern neural network architectures typically have many millions of parameters and can be pruned significantly without substantial loss in effectiveness which demonstrates they are over-parameterized. The contribution of this work is…

Model compression is crucial for deployment of neural networks on devices with limited computational and memory resources. Many different methods show comparable accuracy of the compressed model and similar compression rates. However, the…

Modern deep networks have millions to billions of parameters, which leads to high memory and energy requirements during training as well as during inference on resource-constrained edge devices. Consequently, pruning techniques have been…

Neural network pruning with suitable retraining can yield networks with considerably fewer parameters than the original with comparable degrees of accuracy. Typical pruning methods require large, fully trained networks as a starting point…

Improvements in the performance of deep neural networks have often come through the design of larger and more complex networks. As a result, fast memory is a significant limiting factor in our ability to improve network performance. One…

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…

Network pruning is an effective method to reduce the computational expense of over-parameterized neural networks for deployment on low-resource systems. Recent state-of-the-art techniques for retraining pruned networks such as weight…

In Machine Learning, Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) are a very powerful tool, broadly used in many applications. Often, the selected (deep) architectures include many layers, and therefore a large amount of parameters, which makes…

Pruning is a legitimate method for reducing the size of a neural network to fit in low SWaP hardware, but the networks must be trained and pruned offline. We propose an algorithm, Artificial Neurogenesis (ANG), that grows rather than prunes…

The time and effort involved in hand-designing deep neural networks is immense. This has prompted the development of Neural Architecture Search (NAS) techniques to automate this design. However, NAS algorithms tend to be slow and expensive;…

Automatic methods for Neural Architecture Search (NAS) have been shown to produce state-of-the-art network models. Yet, their main drawback is the computational complexity of the search process. As some primal methods optimized over a…

Current deep learning architectures are growing larger in order to learn from complex datasets. These architectures require giant matrix multiplication operations to train millions of parameters. Conversely, there is another growing trend…

Graph convolutional networks (GCNs) are nowadays becoming mainstream in solving many image processing tasks including skeleton-based recognition. Their general recipe consists in learning convolutional and attention layers that maximize…

Deep neural networks (DNNs) often have to be compressed, via pruning and/or quantization, before they can be deployed in practical settings. In this work we propose a new compression-aware minimizer dubbed CrAM that modifies the…

Large Vision-Language Models (VLMs) enable strong multimodal reasoning but incur heavy inference costs from redundant visual tokens. Token pruning alleviates this issue, yet existing approaches face limitations. Attention-based methods rely…

To remove redundant components of large language models (LLMs) without incurring significant computational costs, this work focuses on single-shot pruning without a retraining phase. We simplify the pruning process for Transformer-based…

Scaling laws motivate the development of Time Series Foundation Models (TSFMs) that pre-train vast parameters and achieve remarkable zero-shot forecasting performance. Surprisingly, even after fine-tuning, TSFMs cannot consistently…

Robustness to adversarial attacks was shown to require a larger model capacity, and thus a larger memory footprint. In this paper, we introduce an approach to obtain robust yet compact models by pruning randomly-initialized binary networks.…
