arXiv:2603. 12222v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Vision Transformers require significant computational resources and memory bandwidth, severely limiting their deployment on resource-constraint hardware.
arXiv:2606. 12278v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Neural network pruning reduces model size by removing less important parameters while aiming to preserve predictive performance.
Neural network pruning reduces model size by removing less important parameters while aiming to preserve predictive performance. Although the Lottery Ticket Hypothesis (LTH) shows that sparse subnetworks can match dense networks when trained from suitable initializations, its iterative pruning procedure requires multiple complete training cycles.
arXiv:2605. 15435v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Standard deep-learning pipelines usually choose the network architecture before training and keep it fixed throughout optimization.
arXiv:2608. 08624v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Domain generalization (DG) and neural network pruning are conventionally treated as distinct objectives, targeting out-of-distribution (OOD) robustness and model efficiency, respectively.
arXiv:2411. 16073v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Inspired by the Well-initialized Lottery Ticket Hypothesis (WLTH), we introduce Soft-TransFormers (Soft-TF), a continual learning framework that adapts a frozen pre-trained Transformer through task-specific soft subnetworks: real-valued multiplicative masks over the query, key, value, and output projections of selected self-attention layers.
arXiv:2607. 15745v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Common practice when training Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) is to use randomly shuffled mini-batches.
arXiv:2506. 14126v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Modern deep learning is increasingly characterized by the use of open-weight foundation models that can be fine-tuned on specialized datasets.
arXiv:2608.28923v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Data augmentation is a cornerstone of deep learning pipelines, yet existing strategies treat it as a static, model-agnostic preprocessing step, eithe...
arXiv:2608. 16700v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Various machine unlearning techniques have been developed in response to privacy legislation requirements, enabling individuals to exercise their legal right to have their data $D_f$ removed from a machine learning model.
arXiv:2608. 06901v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Vision-language models (VLMs) have achieved remarkable generalization across diverse multimodal tasks through large-scale pre-training, yet their rapidly increasing computational and memory requirements pose significant challenges for deployment in constrained environments.
arXiv:2606. 16112v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Residual architectures are ubiquitous in deep learning, but they suffer from a subtle structural limitation: the norm of the residual stream can grow rapidly with depth.
