Recent GPUs leverage Winograd convolution and structured pruning to significantly accelerate inference. First, Winograd convolution is theoretically 2.25x faster than standard convolution. Second, structured pruning reduces inference time without additional overhead as the pruning ratio increases. H…
Depth-wise Separable Convolution (DSConv) has a powerful representation even with fewer parameters and computation, leading to its adoption by almost all of the state-of-the-art CNN models. DSConv models are already compact making it hard to apply pruning, and there are few previous pruning techni…
Pruning has been an effective solution to reduce the number of computations and the memory requirement in deep learning. The pruning unit plays an important role in exploiting the GPU resources efficiently. The filter is proposed as a simple pruning unit of structured pruning. However, since the fi…
