Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for domain-specific pruning of neural networks are described. An exemplary method includes obtaining a first neural network trained based on a first training dataset; obtaining one or more second training datasets respectively from one or more domains; training, based on the first neural network and the one or more second training datasets, a second neural network comprising the first neural network and one or more branches extended from the first neural network. The one or more branches respectively correspond to the one or more domains, and each comprises one or more layers trained based on one of the one or more second training datasets. The method may further include: pruning the second neural network by reducing a number of active neurons; and applying the pruned second neural network for inferencing in the one or more domains.
