The paper presents a PyTorch-based framework for designing and optimizing binarized neural networks, incorporating freezing and pruning mechanisms. It introduces a novel pruning method that uses a global weighting scheme to assess parameter importance across abstraction levels, achieving a 70% pruning rate on VGG11 without sacrificing accuracy—outperforming existing binarized pruning results of 41%. The framework facilitates rapid, reproducible evaluation and prototyping of state‑of‑the‑art binarized network techniques.
