Abstract
Systems and methods for reducing the size of neural networks are disclosed. In an embodiment, a server computer stores a plurality of training datasets, each of which comprise a plurality of training input matrices and a plurality of corresponding outputs. The server computer initiates training of a neural network using the plurality of training input matrices, a weight matrix, and the plurality of corresponding outputs. While the training of the neural network is being performed, the server computer identifies one or more weight values of the weight matrix for removal. The server computer removes the one or more weight values from the weight matrix to generate a reduced weight matrix. The server computer then stores the reduced weight matrix with the neural network.
