Despite their prevalence, deep networks are poorly understood. This is due, at least in part, to their highly parameterized nature. As such, while certain structures have been found to work better than others, the significance of a models unique structure, or the importance of a given layer, and how these translate to overall accuracy, remains unclear. In this paper, we analyze these properties of deep neural networks via a process we term deep net triage. Like medical triage---the assessment of the importance of various wounds---we assess the importance of layers in a neural network, or as we call it, their criticality. We do this by applying structural compression, whereby we reduce a block of layers to a single layer. After compressing a set of layers, we apply a combination of initialization and training schemes, and look at network accuracy, convergence, and the layers learned filters to assess the criticality of the layer. We apply this analysis across four data sets of varying complexity. We find that the accuracy of the model does not depend on which layer was compressed; that accuracy can be recovered or exceeded after compression by fine-tuning across the entire model; and, lastly, that Knowledge Distillation can be used to hasten convergence of a compressed network, but constrains the accuracy attainable to that of the base model.

Most of todays popular deep architectures are hand-engineered to be generalists. However, this design procedure usually leads to massive redundant, useless, or even harmful features for specific tasks. Unnecessarily high complexities render deep nets
impractical for many real-world applications, especially those without powerful GPU support. In this paper, we attempt to derive task-dependent compact models from a deep discriminant analysis perspective. We propose an iterative and proactive approach for classification tasks which alternates between (1) a pushing step, with an objective to simultaneously maximize class separation, penalize co-variances, and push deep discriminants into alignment with a compact set of neurons, and (2) a pruning step, which discards less useful or even interfering neurons. Deconvolution is adopted to reverse unimportant filters effects and recover useful contributing sources. A simple network growing strategy based on the basic Inception module is proposed for challenging tasks requiring larger capacity than what the base net can offer. Experiments on the MNIST, CIFAR10, and ImageNet datasets demonstrate our approachs efficacy. On ImageNet, by pushing and pruning our grown Inception-88 model, we achieve more accurate models than Inception nets generated during growing, residual nets, and popular compact nets at similar sizes. We also show that our grown Inception nets (without hard-coded dimension alignment) clearly outperform residual nets of similar complexities.
In this work, we propose an effective scheme (called DP-Net) for compressing the deep neural networks (DNNs). It includes a novel dynamic programming (DP) based algorithm to obtain the optimal solution of weight quantization and an optimization proce
ss to train a clustering-friendly DNN. Experiments showed that the DP-Net allows larger compression than the state-of-the-art counterparts while preserving accuracy. The largest 77X compression ratio on Wide ResNet is achieved by combining DP-Net with other compression techniques. Furthermore, the DP-Net is extended for compressing a robust DNN model with negligible accuracy loss. At last, a custom accelerator is designed on FPGA to speed up the inference computation with DP-Net.
Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for biomedical image analysis are often of very large size, resulting in high memory requirement and high latency of operations. Searching for an acceptable compressed representation of the base CNN for a specific
imaging application typically involves a series of time-consuming training/validation experiments to achieve a good compromise between network size and accuracy. To address this challenge, we propose CC-Net, a new image complexity-guided CNN compression scheme for biomedical image segmentation. Given a CNN model, CC-Net predicts the final accuracy of networks of different sizes based on the average image complexity computed from the training data. It then selects a multiplicative factor for producing a desired network with acceptable network accuracy and size. Experiments show that CC-Net is effective for generating compressed segmentation networks, retaining up to 95% of the base network segmentation accuracy and utilizing only 0.1% of trainable parameters of the full-sized networks in the best case.
In this paper we propose a novel decomposition method based on filter group approximation, which can significantly reduce the redundancy of deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) while maintaining the majority of feature representation. Unlike oth
er low-rank decomposition algorithms which operate on spatial or channel dimension of filters, our proposed method mainly focuses on exploiting the filter group structure for each layer. For several commonly used CNN models, including VGG and ResNet, our method can reduce over 80% floating-point operations (FLOPs) with less accuracy drop than state-of-the-art methods on various image classification datasets. Besides, experiments demonstrate that our method is conducive to alleviating degeneracy of the compressed network, which hurts the convergence and performance of the network.
Most of the modern instance segmentation approaches fall into two categories: region-based approaches in which object bounding boxes are detected first and later used in cropping and segmenting instances; and keypoint-based approaches in which indivi
dual instances are represented by a set of keypoints followed by a dense pixel clustering around those keypoints. Despite the maturity of these two paradigms, we would like to report an alternative affinity-based paradigm where instances are segmented based on densely predicted affinities and graph partitioning algorithms. Such affinity-based approaches indicate that high-level graph features other than regions or keypoints can be directly applied in the instance segmentation task. In this work, we propose Deep Affinity Net, an effective affinity-based approach accompanied with a new graph partitioning algorithm Cascade-GAEC. Without bells and whistles, our end-to-end model results in 32.4% AP on Cityscapes val and 27.5% AP on test. It achieves the best single-shot result as well as the fastest running time among all affinity-based models. It also outperforms the region-based method Mask R-CNN.
