I'm new to this topic but am very intrigued. I've always wondered if there was a way to compress neural networks without losing performance. Thanks for sharing this article!

Channel pruning seems to be getting a lot of attention lately. Has anybody here tried implementing it? Any thoughts on its pros and cons?

Channel pruning can achieve high compression rates with relatively little effect on model performance. However, it can be more difficult to implement than weight pruning, as it often requires making structural changes to the network.

Fascinating article on neural network pruning! I've been exploring this topic for a while now and it's always great to see new research coming out. Anybody else here experimenting with pruning techniques?

Definitely! I've been playing around with weight pruning and have seen some decent results. It's amazing how much we can reduce model size without sacrificing performance.

Weight pruning has been around for a while, but new techniques like magnaleficient pruning and channel pruning are really taking things to the next level. Great thread!

Using pruning to reduce model size is important for deploying models on devices with limited resources. This could have big implications for edge computing and IoT applications.

Absolutely! In addition to deploying models to devices with limited resources, pruning can also speed up inference time and reduce energy consumption.
