  • Publication number: 20240119291
    Abstract: Machine learning is a process that learns a neural network model from a given dataset, where the model can then be used to make a prediction about new data. In order to reduce the size, computation, and latency of a neural network model, a compression technique can be employed which includes model sparsification. To avoid the negative consequences of pruning a fully pretrained neural network model and on the other hand of training a sparse model in the first place without any recovery option, the present disclosure provides a dynamic neural network model sparsification process which allows for recovery of previously pruned parts to improve the quality of the sparse neural network model.
