Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Apply tensor-train decomposition at rank 384 | BERT-base · GLUE test | all-task average score: 82.7 -> 83.2 | Helped |
| Apply Tucker decomposition at ranks 72-384 | BERT-base · GLUE test | all-task average score: 82.7 -> 82.6 | No clear effect |
| Use Tucker decomposition with ranks 36-128 instead of 72-384 | BERT-base · GLUE test | all-task average score: 82.6 -> 80.8 | Hurt |
| Reduce tensor-train dimension rank from 384 to 64 | BERT-base · GLUE test | RPS: 420.1 -> 1143.6 | Helped |
| Apply Tucker decomposition at ranks 72-384 | TinyBERT-6layer · GLUE test | all-task average score: 83.0 -> 81.6 | Hurt |
| Remove task-specific distillation (ablation) | BERT-IV-72-384 · GLUE test | all-task average score: 82.6 -> 80.0 | Hurt |
| Remove knowledge distillation (ablation) | BERT-IV-72-384 · GLUE test | all-task average score: 82.6 -> 47.3 | Hurt |
| Decompose FFN only rather than jointly decomposing SAN and FFN (ablation) | BERT-IV · GLUE test | all-task average score: 82.6 -> 83.1 | Helped |
| Decompose SAN only rather than jointly decomposing SAN and FFN (ablation) | BERT-IV · GLUE test | all-task average score: 82.6 -> 82.4 | Hurt |
| Add a regularizer to make reconstructed weights match raw weights (ablation) | BERT-IV · GLUE | performance | Hurt |
| Increase Tucker layer and dimension ranks (ablation) | BERT-IV · GLUE | performance | Helped |
