ABSTRACT
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have been successfully applied to a wide range of applications in different areas. However, the superior performances of DNNs are accompanied with large amounts of memory and computation requirements, which seriously restricts their deployment on resource-limited devices and latency-sensitive applications. To improve the efficiency, we study model compression from different perspectives. In addition to efficiency, it is always appealing to further improve the effectiveness of DNNs, thus benefiting the existing applications and extending the application horizon to more accuracy-critical or safety-critical domains. Further improving the effectiveness of a DNN usually needs to substantially, even exponentially, increase the number of its parameters. To avoid the extra cost, we propose dynamics-aware learning strategies to enhance the performance of a DNN by exploring the learning dynamics of DNNs.
