  • Patent number: 11934958
    Abstract: This disclosure describes one or more embodiments of systems, non-transitory computer-readable media, and methods that utilize channel pruning and knowledge distillation to generate a compact noise-to-image GAN. For example, the disclosed systems prune less informative channels via outgoing channel weights of the GAN. In some implementations, the disclosed systems further utilize content-aware pruning by utilizing a differentiable loss between an image generated by the GAN and a modified version of the image to identify sensitive channels within the GAN during channel pruning. In some embodiments, the disclosed systems utilize knowledge distillation to learn parameters for the pruned GAN to mimic a full-size GAN.
