Deep neural networks often have millions of parameters. This can hinder their deployment to low-end devices, not only due to high memory requirements but also because of increased latency at inference. We propose a novel model compression method that generates a sparse trained model without additional overhead: by allowing (i) dynamic allocation of the sparsity pattern and (ii) incorporating feedback signal to reactivate prematurely pruned weights we obtain a performant sparse model in one single training pass (retraining is not needed, but can further improve the performance). We evaluate our method on CIFAR-10 and ImageNet, and show that the obtained sparse models can reach the state-of-the-art performance of dense models. Moreover, their performance surpasses that of models generated by all previously proposed pruning schemes.

    cs.LG 2025-10 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    CAGE, a curvature-aware correction that adds the quantization error to the gradient, reduces loss in low-bit quantization-aware training, letting 3-bit CAGE-trained models match 4-bit baseline-trained models.

    cs.LG 2025-06 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    A Lyapunov-spectrum-based distance to the dense network lets hyperparameter search for pruned RNNs stop early and select models that beat both loss-based baselines and the dense originals.

    TSDN recognizes unseen combinations of inner and outer modulations by log-transforming composite signals and learning layer-specific classifiers, but the core linearization is derived for positive real signals while t...

  4. Delta-SVD: Efficient Compression for Personalized Text-to-Image Models

    cs.CV 2025-08 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    DreamBooth fine-tuning updates are low-rank, so post-hoc SVD with energy-based truncation compresses personalized models by up to 270x with mild quality loss.

  5. Resource-Efficient Automatic Software Vulnerability Assessment via Knowledge Distillation and Particle Swarm Optimization

    cs.LG 2025-07 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    A PSO-guided knowledge distillation framework compresses a CodeBERT vulnerability assessor to 0.6% of its original size while retaining 89.3% of its accuracy.

  6. Long-Tailed Data Classification by Increasing and Decreasing Neurons During Training

    cs.LG 2025-07 reject novelty 4.0 of 10

    A dynamic neuron replacement scheme, with gradients reweighted by class frequency, improves long-tailed image classification accuracy by 1-4% over fixed networks in the reported experiments.
