Quantization has become a popular technique to compress neural networks and reduce compute cost, but most prior work focuses on studying quantization without changing the network size. Many real-world applications of neural networks have compute cost and memory budgets, which can be traded off with model quality by changing the number of parameters. In this work, we use ResNet as a case study to systematically investigate the effects of quantization on inference compute cost-quality tradeoff curves. Our results suggest that for each bfloat16 ResNet model, there are quantized models with lower cost and higher accuracy; in other words, the bfloat16 compute cost-quality tradeoff curve is Pareto-dominated by the 4-bit and 8-bit curves, with models primarily quantized to 4-bit yielding the best Pareto curve. Furthermore, we achieve state-of-the-art results on ImageNet for 4-bit ResNet-50 with quantization-aware training, obtaining a top-1 eval accuracy of 77.09%. We demonstrate the regularizing effect of quantization by measuring the generalization gap. The quantization method we used is optimized for practicality: It requires little tuning and is designed with hardware capabilities in mind. Our work motivates further research into optimal numeric formats for quantization, as well as the development of machine learning accelerators supporting these formats. As part of this work, we contribute a quantization library written in JAX, which is open-sourced at https://github.com/google-research/google-research/tree/master/aqt.

Residual networks (ResNets) have recently achieved state-of-the-art on challenging computer vision tasks. We introduce Resnet in Resnet (RiR): a deep dual-stream architecture that generalizes ResNets and standard CNNs and is easily implemented with n

The information bottleneck principle (Shwartz-Ziv & Tishby, 2017) suggests that SGD-based training of deep neural networks results in optimally compressed hidden layers, from an information theoretic perspective. However, this claim was established o
n toy data. The goal of the work we present here is to test whether the information bottleneck principle is applicable to a realistic setting using a larger and deeper convolutional architecture, a ResNet model. We trained PixelCNN++ models as inverse representation decoders to measure the mutual information between hidden layers of a ResNet and input image data, when trained for (1) classification and (2) autoencoding. We find that two stages of learning happen for both training regimes, and that compression does occur, even for an autoencoder. Sampling images by conditioning on hidden layers activations offers an intuitive visualisation to understand what a ResNets learns to forget.
Multi-Task Learning (MTL) is a well-established paradigm for training deep neural network models for multiple correlated tasks. Often the task objectives conflict, requiring trade-offs between them during model building. In such cases, MTL models can
use gradient-based multi-objective optimization (MOO) to find one or more Pareto optimal solutions. A common requirement in MTL applications is to find an {it Exact} Pareto optimal (EPO) solution, which satisfies user preferences with respect to task-specific objective functions. Further, to improve model generalization, various constraints on the weights may need to be enforced during training. Addressing these requirements is challenging because it requires a search direction that allows descent not only towards the Pareto front but also towards the input preference, within the constraints imposed and in a manner that scales to high-dimensional gradients. We design and theoretically analyze such search directions and develop the first scalable algorithm, with theoretical guarantees of convergence, to find an EPO solution, including when box and equality constraints are imposed. Our unique method combines multiple gradient descent with carefully controlled ascent to traverse the Pareto front in a principled manner, making it robust to initialization. This also facilitates systematic exploration of the Pareto front, that we utilize to approximate the Pareto front for multi-criteria decision-making. Empirical results show that our algorithm outperforms competing methods on benchmark MTL datasets and MOO problems.
Recent breakthroughs in Neural Architectural Search (NAS) have achieved state-of-the-art performance in many tasks such as image classification and language understanding. However, most existing works only optimize for model accuracy and largely igno
re other important factors imposed by the underlying hardware and devices, such as latency and energy, when making inference. In this paper, we first introduce the problem of NAS and provide a survey on recent works. Then we deep dive into two recent advancements on extending NAS into multiple-objective frameworks: MONAS and DPP-Net. Both MONAS and DPP-Net are capable of optimizing accuracy and other objectives imposed by devices, searching for neural architectures that can be best deployed on a wide spectrum of devices: from embedded systems and mobile devices to workstations. Experimental results are poised to show that architectures found by MONAS and DPP-Net achieves Pareto optimality w.r.t the given objectives for various devices.
