  • Patent number: 12579430
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for improving structural sparsity of a machine-trained (MT) network. The method receives a network having multiple layers. Each layer of a set of the layers includes multiple filters of weight values. The method replaces the filters of a particular layer of the network with (i) a first set of filters of weight values, (ii) a set of scale values for the first set of filters, and (iii) a second set of filters of weight values. Each scale value corresponds to a different one of the filters of the first set of filters. The method trains the network by applying constraints to bias at least a subset of the scale values towards zero. When a particular scale value falls below a threshold value, the particular scale value is set to zero.

  • Patent number: 12572798
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for training a machine-trained (MT) network. The method receives a network having multiple layers. Each layer of a set of the layers includes multiple weight values. The method trains the network by alternately (1) propagating inputs through the network to generate outputs and adjusting the weight values based on differences between the generated outputs and expected outputs and (2) identifying sets of the weight values for removal according to a set of constraints that accounts for (i) a total number of weight values and (ii) an amount of time required to execute the network on a particular type of integrated circuit.

  • Patent number: 12572804
    Abstract: A system and method for neural network confidence regularization is disclosed. A classification system uses a neural network training model to generate prediction. The confidence of the neural network training model is adjusted based on feature prevalence. The system processes mixed data types (binary, categorical, continuous, and date) through type-specific transformations and tensor construction. A tempering factor is calculated from the unweighted sum of features and applied to intermediate neural network outputs. This tempering mechanism reduces model confidence when several low-weight features are present, enabling faster convergence, better generalization, and improved classification accuracy compared to standard neural networks, particularly for complex non-linear relationships in tabular data domains.
