the interplay of compressed training and uncertainty-aware learning
abstract:
deep neural networks have been widely used in massive engineering domains, but the training and deployment of neural networks are subject to many fundamental challenges. in the training phase, the large-scale optimization often consumes a huge amount of computing and energy resources. in practical deployment, we often need the capability of uncertainty quantification to ensure the safe operations in an uncertain environment. to address the first challenge, we need compressed training, but it is hard to determine the compression ratio automatically in the training phase. to address the second challenge, we often use bayesian learning models, but the resulting uncertainty-aware model often leads to massive model copies which cause huge memory and computing overhead.
in this talk, we show that the interplay of compressed training and bayesian learning can provide more sustainable neural network models. firstly, we investigate end-to-end tensor compressed training. this approach can offer orders-of-magnitude parameter reduction in the training phase, but it is hard to determine the tensor rank and model complexity automatically. we show that efficient bayesian formulation and solver can be developed to address this major challenge, enabling high-accuracy end-to-end compressed training as well as energy-efficient on-device training. secondly, we investigate mcmc-type bayesian training. here the main challenge is how to use a small number of model copies to accurately represent model uncertainties. we provide an online and provable online sample thinning method based on kernelized stein discrepancy. this method can reduce the model copies on the fly, and offers orders-of-magnitude memory and latency savings in the inference.
