Prospect Pruning (ProsPr)

arXiv PyTorch v1.9.1 license: MIT Follow @notmilad

The code for "Prospect Pruning: Finding Trainable Weights at Initialization Using Meta-Gradients"

Installation

1️⃣ Reproducing results

You can replicate the development environment and use the same models and training script used in the paper with:

$ conda env create -f environment.yml

If you'd like to use the exact same package versions we used:

$ conda env create -f environment_pinned.yml

This will create the Conda environment prospr. The project's entry point is cli.py

To see the available options and switches:

$ python cli.py -h

2️⃣ As a package

You can also install and use ProsPr as a package inside your own projects:

$ pip install git+ssh://[email protected]/mil-ad/prospr.git

The prospr package can then be imported and used:

import prospr

help(prospr)

pruned_model = prospr.prune(
    model,
    prune_ratio=0.98,
    dataloader=train_dataloader,
    filter_fn=prune_filter_fn,
    num_steps=3,
    inner_lr=0.5,
    inner_momentum=0.9,
)
