Abstract
Embodiments described herein relate to methods and apparatuses for training a neural network. A method comprises receiving an input data set at a layer of the neural network; performing a forward pass and a backward pass on the input data set to determine regular output data; calculating a first loss associated with the regular output data; performing a quantized forward pass and a quantized backward pass on the input data set to determine quantized output data; calculating a second loss associated with the quantized output data; comparing the first loss to the second loss; and based on the comparison determining whether to reduce the input data set to provide a reduced data set.
