Abstract
A method and apparatus for compressing an artificial neural network may acquire weights corresponding to an artificial neural network trained in advance, wherein the artificial neural network includes a plurality of layers, and a processor configured to generate data for acquiring a change of behavior of the artificial neural network due to pruning of the artificial neural network based on the weights, determine a pruning threshold for pruning of the artificial neural network based on the change of the behavior of the artificial neural network, and compress the neural network based on the pruning threshold.
