Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| constrain inter-subnetwork connections to preserve contraction (ablation) | Sparse Combo Net · permuted seqMNIST, 24 × 32 network | test accuracy: 47.0% -> 96.7% | Helped |
| increase the number of modules from one to two (ablation) | Sparse Combo Net · permuted seqMNIST, 32 units per module | test accuracy: 37.1% -> 89.1% | Helped |
| increase the number of modules from one to two (ablation) | SVD Combo Net · permuted seqMNIST, 32 units per module | test accuracy: 61.8% -> 92.9% | Helped |
| reduce subnetwork sparsity from 26.5% to 10% (ablation) | Sparse Combo Net, 11 × 32 network · permuted seqMNIST | test accuracy: >5 percentage point | Helped |
| vary subnetwork sparsity; 3.3% sparsity performed best among tested 1%, 3.3%, 5%, and 10% levels (ablation) | Sparse Combo Net, 16 × 32 network · permuted seqMNIST and seqCIFAR10 | test accuracy | Mixed |
| decrease the magnitude of nonzero subnetwork weights while holding sparsity fixed (ablation) | Sparse Combo Net · permuted seqMNIST | test accuracy | Hurt |
| vary modularity while holding total size at 352 units (ablation) | Sparse Combo Net · permuted seqMNIST | test accuracy | Mixed |
| increase the number of neurons (ablation) | Sparse Combo Net and SVD Combo Net · permuted seqMNIST | test accuracy: saturating at ∼ 97% for Sparse Combo Net and ∼ 95% for SVD Combo Net | Helped |
