Measured effects reported in the paper

What was changedWhereMeasuredEffect
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 subsetAvg: 75.4 -> 78.6Helped
Allocate more compression to intermediate outputs and embedding rank, while retaining more layers and attention heads (ablation)BERT compression architecture · GLUE devAvg: 70.0 -> 72.6Helped
Add a second KD stage, first training a full-size student and then distilling to Architecture C (ablation)Architecture C · GLUE dev subsetAvg: 78.6 -> 78.9Helped
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 subsetAvg: 80.3 -> 81.6Helped
Iteratively prune width dimensions instead of pruning them in one step (ablation)Architecture C with multi-stage KD · GLUE dev subsetAvg: 78.9 -> 79.0Helped
Add iterative depth pruning and a third KD stage using an eight-layer teacher (ablation)Architecture C with iterative width pruning · GLUE dev subsetAvg: 79.0 -> 79.4Helped
Use an intermediate pruning frequency rather than pruning rapidly or slowly (ablation)Iterative pruning during the third KD stage · CoLA and SST-2 devperformanceMixed
Use a linear-decaying rather than constant learning-rate schedule during slow pruning (ablation)Iterative pruning during the third KD stage · CoLA devperformanceHurt
