Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for knowledge-preserving sparse pruning on neural networks are described. An exemplary method includes obtaining a pre-trained machine learning model trained based on a plurality of general-purpose training data; training a task-specific machine learning model by tuning the pre-trained machine learning model based on a plurality of task-specific training data corresponding to a task; constructing a student network based on the task-specific machine learning model; simultaneously performing (1) knowledge distillation from the trained task-specific machine learning model as a teacher network to the student network and (2) network pruning on the student network; and obtaining the trained student network for serving the task.
