A collection of recent methods on DNN compression and acceleration. There are mainly 5 kinds of methods for efficient DNNs:
- neural architecture re-design or search (NAS)
- maintain accuracy, less cost (e.g., #Params, #FLOPs, etc.): MobileNet, ShuffleNet etc.
- maintain cost, more accuracy: Inception, ResNeXt, Xception etc.
- pruning (including structured and unstructured)
- quantization
- matrix/low-rank decomposition
- knowledge distillation (KD)
Note, this repo is more about pruning (with lottery ticket hypothesis or LTH as a sub-topic), KD, and quantization. For other topics like NAS, see more comprehensive collections (## Related Repos and Websites) at the end of this file. Welcome to send a pull request if you'd like to add any pertinent papers.
Other repos:
- LTH (lottery ticket hypothesis) and its broader version, pruning at initialization (PaI), now is at the frontier of network pruning. We single out the PaI papers to this repo. Welcome to check it out!
- Awesome-Efficient-ViT for a curated list of efficient vision transformers.
