Channel pruning has demonstrated its effectiveness in compressing ConvNets. In many related arts, the importance of an output feature map is only determined by its associated filter. However, these methods ignore a small part of weights in the next layer which disappears as the feature map is removed. They ignore the phenomenon of weight dependency. Besides, many pruning methods use only one criterion for evaluation and find a sweet spot of pruning structure and accuracy in a trial-and-error fashion, which can be time-consuming. In this paper, we proposed a channel pruning algorithm via multi-criteria based on weight dependency, CPMC, which can compress a pre-trained model directly. CPMC defines channel importance in three aspects, including its associated weight value, computational cost, and parameter quantity. According to the phenomenon of weight dependency, CPMC gets channel importance by assessing its associated filter and the corresponding partial weights in the next layer. Then CPMC uses global normalization to achieve cross-layer comparison. Finally, CPMC removes less important channels by global ranking. CPMC can compress various CNN models, including VGGNet, ResNet, and DenseNet on various image classification datasets. Extensive experiments have shown CPMC outperforms the others significantly.

Channel pruning is a popular technique for compressing convolutional neural networks (CNNs), where various pruning criteria have been proposed to remove the redundant filters. From our comprehensive experiments, we found two blind spots in the study
of pruning criteria: (1) Similarity: There are some strong similarities among several primary pruning criteria that are widely cited and compared. According to these criteria, the ranks of filtersImportance Score are almost identical, resulting in similar pruned structures. (2) Applicability: The filtersImportance Score measured by some pruning criteria are too close to distinguish the network redundancy well. In this paper, we analyze these two blind spots on different types of pruning criteria with layer-wise pruning or global pruning. The analyses are based on the empirical experiments and our assumption (Convolutional Weight Distribution Assumption) that the well-trained convolutional filters each layer approximately follow a Gaussian-alike distribution. This assumption has been verified through systematic and extensive statistical tests.
The convolutional neural network has achieved great success in fulfilling computer vision tasks despite large computation overhead against efficient deployment. Structured (channel) pruning is usually applied to reduce the model redundancy while pres
erving the network structure, such that the pruned network can be easily deployed in practice. However, existing structured pruning methods require hand-crafted rules which may lead to tremendous pruning space. In this paper, we introduce Differentiable Annealing Indicator Search (DAIS) that leverages the strength of neural architecture search in the channel pruning and automatically searches for the effective pruned model with given constraints on computation overhead. Specifically, DAIS relaxes the binarized channel indicators to be continuous and then jointly learns both indicators and model parameters via bi-level optimization. To bridge the non-negligible discrepancy between the continuous model and the target binarized model, DAIS proposes an annealing-based procedure to steer the indicator convergence towards binarized states. Moreover, DAIS designs various regularizations based on a priori structural knowledge to control the pruning sparsity and to improve model performance. Experimental results show that DAIS outperforms state-of-the-art pruning methods on CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, and ImageNet.
Filter pruning is widely used to reduce the computation of deep learning, enabling the deployment of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) in resource-limited devices. Conventional Hard Filter Pruning (HFP) method zeroizes pruned filters and stops updating the
m, thus reducing the search space of the model. On the contrary, Soft Filter Pruning (SFP) simply zeroizes pruned filters, keeping updating them in the following training epochs, thus maintaining the capacity of the network. However, SFP, together with its variants, converges much slower than HFP due to its larger search space. Our question is whether SFP-based methods and HFP can be combined to achieve better performance and speed up convergence. Firstly, we generalize SFP-based methods and HFP to analyze their characteristics. Then we propose a Gradually Hard Filter Pruning (GHFP) method to smoothly switch from SFP-based methods to HFP during training and pruning, thus maintaining a large search space at first, gradually reducing the capacity of the model to ensure a moderate convergence speed. Experimental results on CIFAR-10/100 show that our method achieves the state-of-the-art performance.
Early prediction of cerebral palsy is essential as it leads to early treatment and monitoring. Deep learning has shown promising results in biomedical engineering thanks to its capacity of modelling complicated data with its non-linear architecture.
However, due to their complex structure, deep learning models are generally not interpretable by humans, making it difficult for clinicians to rely on the findings. In this paper, we propose a channel attention module for deep learning models to predict cerebral palsy from infants body movements, which highlights the key features (i.e. body joints) the model identifies as important, thereby indicating why certain diagnostic results are found. To highlight the capacity of the deep network in modelling input features, we utilize raw joint positions instead of hand-crafted features. We validate our system with a real-world infant movement dataset. Our proposed channel attention module enables the visualization of the vital joints to this disease that the network considers. Our system achieves 91.67% accuracy, suppressing other state-of-the-art deep learning methods.
Extracting effective deep features to represent content and style information is the key to universal style transfer. Most existing algorithms use VGG19 as the feature extractor, which incurs a high computational cost and impedes real-time style tran
sfer on high-resolution images. In this work, we propose a lightweight alternative architecture - ArtNet, which is based on GoogLeNet, and later pruned by a novel channel pruning method named Zero-channel Pruning specially designed for style transfer approaches. Besides, we propose a theoretically sound sandwich swap transform (S2) module to transfer deep features, which can create a pleasing holistic appearance and good local textures with an improved content preservation ability. By using ArtNet and S2, our method is 2.3 to 107.4 times faster than state-of-the-art approaches. The comprehensive experiments demonstrate that ArtNet can achieve universal, real-time, and high-quality style transfer on high-resolution images simultaneously, (68.03 FPS on 512 times 512 images).
