  • Patent number: 11983632
    Abstract: The disclosure describes one or more implementations of a neural network architecture pruning system that automatically and progressively prunes neural networks. For instance, the neural network architecture pruning system can automatically reduce the size of an untrained or previously-trained neural network without reducing the accuracy of the neural network. For example, the neural network architecture pruning system jointly trains portions of a neural network while progressively pruning redundant subsets of the neural network at each training iteration. In many instances, the neural network architecture pruning system increases the accuracy of the neural network by progressively removing excess or redundant portions (e.g., channels or layers) of the neural network. Further, by removing portions of a neural network, the neural network architecture pruning system can increase the efficiency of the neural network.

  • Publication number: 20240135514
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that modify digital images via multi-layered scene completion techniques facilitated by artificial intelligence. For instance, in some embodiments, the disclosed systems receive a digital image portraying a first object and a second object against a background, where the first object occludes a portion of the second object. Additionally, the disclosed systems pre-process the digital image to generate a first content fill for the portion of the second object occluded by the first object and a second content fill for a portion of the background occluded by the second object. After pre-processing, the disclosed systems detect one or more user interactions to move or delete the first object from the digital image. The disclosed systems further modify the digital image by moving or deleting the first object and exposing the first content fill for the portion of the second object.
