Abstract: A method and system for polymorphic pruning of neural networks are disclosed. The method involves training a neural network model on an input dataset for an initial predetermined number of iterations to gather weight information, including the strength of each weight and changes in strength over iterations. The weights are stored in an array accessible to a pruning algorithm. An objective function is compiled using the weight information, and an optimization tool solves the objective function to generate a solution vector. This solution vector is used to create a pruning mask, which is applied to the neural network model to prune certain weights by setting them to zero. The pruned weight vector updates the model, resulting in a neural network with fewer non-zero connections between neurons.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems and methods for optimizing neural networks by strategically identifying and pruning critical neurons to reduce computational resources while maintaining high levels of accuracy. The method involves determining critical neurons within a neural network based on features collected during an initial phase of training. These critical neurons are then pruned from the network, resulting in a pruned neural network with the critical neurons removed. The training process continues using the pruned neural network, allowing for significant computational savings without substantially impacting the network's performance.
