SNIP

This repository contains code for the paper SNIP: Single-shot Network Pruning based on Connection Sensitivity (ICLR 2019).

Prerequisites

Dependencies

Datasets

Put the following datasets in your preferred location (e.g., ./data).

Usage

To run the code (LeNet on MNIST by default):

python main.py --path_data=./data

For example, in order to reproduce results for VGG-D:

python main.py --logdir ./reproduce-vgg --path_data ./data --datasource cifar-10 --aug_kinds fliplr translate_px --arch vgg-d --target_sparsity 0.95 --batch_size 128 --train_iterations 150000 --optimizer momentum --lr_decay_type piecewise --decay_boundaries 30000 60000 90000 120000 --decay_values 0.1 0.02 0.004 0.0008 0.00016

See main.py to run with other options.
