Deep neural networks currently demonstrate state-of-the-art performance in several domains. At the same time, models of this class are very demanding in terms of computational resources. In particular, a large amount of memory is required by commonly used fully-connected layers, making it hard to use the models on low-end devices and stopping the further increase of the model size. In this paper we convert the dense weight matrices of the fully-connected layers to the Tensor Train format such that the number of parameters is reduced by a huge factor and at the same time the expressive power of the layer is preserved. In particular, for the Very Deep VGG networks we report the compression factor of the dense weight matrix of a fully-connected layer up to 200000 times leading to the compression factor of the whole network up to 7 times.

We introduce a method to train Binarized Neural Networks (BNNs) - neural networks with binary weights and activations at run-time and when computing the parameters gradient at train-time. We conduct two sets of experiments, each based on a different framework, namely Torch7 and Theano, where we train BNNs on MNIST, CIFAR-10 and SVHN, and achieve nearly state-of-the-art results. During the forward pass, BNNs drastically reduce memory size and accesses, and replace most arithmetic operations with bit-wise operations, which might lead to a great increase in power-efficiency. Last but not least, we wrote a binary matrix multiplication GPU kernel with which it is possible to run our MNIST BNN 7 times faster than with an unoptimized GPU kernel, without suffering any loss in classification accuracy. The code for training and running our BNNs is available.
Driven by the outstanding performance of neural networks in the structured Euclidean domain, recent years have seen a surge of interest in developing neural networks for graphs and data supported on graphs. The graph is leveraged at each layer of the neural network as a parameterization to capture detail at the node level with a reduced number of parameters and computational complexity. Following this rationale, this paper puts forth a general framework that unifies state-of-the-art graph neural networks (GNNs) through the concept of EdgeNet. An EdgeNet is a GNN architecture that allows different nodes to use different parameters to weigh the information of different neighbors. By extrapolating this strategy to more iterations between neighboring nodes, the EdgeNet learns edge- and neighbor-dependent weights to capture local detail. This is a general linear and local operation that a node can perform and encompasses under one formulation all existing graph convolutional neural networks (GCNNs) as well as graph attention networks (GATs). In writing different GNN architectures with a common language, EdgeNets highlight specific architecture advantages and limitations, while providing guidelines to improve their capacity without compromising their local implementation. An interesting conclusion is the unification of GCNNs and GATs -- approaches that have been so far perceived as separate. In particular, we show that GATs are GCNNs on a graph that is learned from the features. This particularization opens the doors to develop alternative attention mechanisms for improving discriminatory power.
Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) are notoriously difficult to train. When the eigenvalues of the hidden to hidden weight matrix deviate from absolute value 1, optimization becomes difficult due to the well studied issue of vanishing and exploding gra dients, especially when trying to learn long-term dependencies. To circumvent this problem, we propose a new architecture that learns a unitary weight matrix, with eigenvalues of absolute value exactly 1. The challenge we address is that of parametrizing unitary matrices in a way that does not require expensive computations (such as eigendecomposition) after each weight update. We construct an expressive unitary weight matrix by composing several structured matrices that act as building blocks with parameters to be learned. Optimization with this parameterization becomes feasible only when considering hidden states in the complex domain. We demonstrate the potential of this architecture by achieving state of the art results in several hard tasks involving very long-term dependencies.

Deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved outstanding performance in a wide range of applications, e.g., image classification, natural language processing, etc. Despite the good performance, the huge number of parameters in DNNs brings challenges to efficient training of DNNs and also their deployment in low-end devices with limited computing resources. In this paper, we explore the correlations in the weight matrices, and approximate the weight matrices with the low-rank block-term tensors. We name the new corresponding structure as block-term tensor layers (BT-layers), which can be easily adapted to neural network models, such as CNNs and RNNs. In particular, the inputs and the outputs in BT-layers are reshaped into low-dimensional high-order tensors with a similar or improved representation power. Sufficient experiments have demonstrated that BT-layers in CNNs and RNNs can achieve a very large compression ratio on the number of parameters while preserving or improving the representation power of the original DNNs.
The high computation, memory, and power budgets of inferring convolutional neural networks (CNNs) are major bottlenecks of model deployment to edge computing platforms, e.g., mobile devices and IoT. Moreover, training CNNs is time and energy-intensiv e even on high-grade servers. Convolution layers and fully connected layers, because of their intense use of multiplications, are the dominant contributor to this computation budget. We propose to alleviate this problem by introducing two new operations: convolutional shifts and fully-connected shifts which replace multiplications with bitwise shift and sign flipping during both training and inference. During inference, both approaches require only 5 bits (or less) to represent the weights. This family of neural network architectures (that use convolutional shifts and fully connected shifts) is referred to as DeepShift models. We propose two methods to train DeepShift models: DeepShift-Q which trains regular weights constrained to powers of 2, and DeepShift-PS that trains the values of the shifts and sign flips directly. Very close accuracy, and in some cases higher accuracy, to baselines are achieved. Converting pre-trained 32-bit floating-point baseline models of ResNet18, ResNet50, VGG16, and GoogleNet to DeepShift and training them for 15 to 30 epochs, resulted in Top-1/Top-5 accuracies higher than that of the original model. Last but not least, we implemented the convolutional shifts and fully connected shift GPU kernels and showed a reduction in latency time of 25% when inferring ResNet18 compared to unoptimized multiplication-based GPU kernels. The code can be found at https://github.com/mostafaelhoushi/DeepShift.
