Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Use a deeper, narrower architecture (Architecture C) rather than a shallower, wider architecture (Architecture I) (ablation) | BERT compression with one-step pruning and KD · GLUE dev subset | Avg: 75.4 -> 78.6 | Helped |
| Allocate more compression to intermediate outputs and embedding rank, while retaining more layers and attention heads (ablation) | BERT compression architecture · GLUE dev | Avg: 70.0 -> 72.6 | Helped |
| Add a second KD stage, first training a full-size student and then distilling to Architecture C (ablation) | Architecture C · GLUE dev subset | Avg: 78.6 -> 78.9 | Helped |
| Train the full-size BERT student with KD and augmented data before using it as the compressed student's teacher (ablation) | BERT_BASE teacher and Architecture C student · GLUE dev subset | Avg: 80.3 -> 81.6 | Helped |
| Iteratively prune width dimensions instead of pruning them in one step (ablation) | Architecture C with multi-stage KD · GLUE dev subset | Avg: 78.9 -> 79.0 | Helped |
| Add iterative depth pruning and a third KD stage using an eight-layer teacher (ablation) | Architecture C with iterative width pruning · GLUE dev subset | Avg: 79.0 -> 79.4 | Helped |
| Use an intermediate pruning frequency rather than pruning rapidly or slowly (ablation) | Iterative pruning during the third KD stage · CoLA and SST-2 dev | performance | Mixed |
| Use a linear-decaying rather than constant learning-rate schedule during slow pruning (ablation) | Iterative pruning during the third KD stage · CoLA dev | performance | Hurt |
| Use a linear-decaying rather than constant learning-rate schedule during slow pruning (ablation) | Iterative pruning during the third KD stage · SST-2 dev | performance | No clear effect |
| Compress BERT using ROSITA's integrated pruning, low-rank factorization, and KD framework | BERT_BASE · GLUE test average | Avg: 76.7 -> 78.0 | Helped |
| Use ROSITA rather than MobileBERT at a similar parameter budget | BERT_BASE compression · GLUE test average | Avg: 76.7 -> 78.0 | Helped |
