Network Pruning via Annealing and Direct Sparsity Control

no code implementations11 Feb 2020 Yangzi Guo, Yiyuan She, Adrian Barbu

The attractive fact that the network size keeps dropping throughout the iterations makes it suitable for the pruning of any untrained or pre-trained network.

A study of local optima for learning feature interactions using neural networks

no code implementations11 Feb 2020 Yangzi Guo, Adrian Barbu

To deal with the local minima and for feature selection we propose a node pruning and feature selection algorithm that improves the capability of NNs to find better local minima even when there are irrelevant variables.

Finding Deep Local Optima Using Network Pruning

no code implementations25 Sep 2019 Yangzi Guo, Yiyuan She, Ying Nian Wu, Adrian Barbu

However, in non-vision sparse datasets, especially with many irrelevant features where a standard neural network would overfit, this might not be the case and there might be many non-equivalent local optima.

Generating Compact Tree Ensembles via Annealing

no code implementations16 Sep 2017 Gitesh Dawer, Yangzi Guo, Adrian Barbu

Tree ensembles are flexible predictive models that can capture relevant variables and to some extent their interactions in a compact and interpretable manner.
