Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| prune with BiP instead of IMP | ResNet-18 · CIFAR-10 | sparsity of sparsest winning ticket (%): 87 -> 89 | Helped |
| prune with BiP instead of IMP | ResNet-20 · CIFAR-10 | sparsity of sparsest winning ticket (%): 74 -> 67 | Hurt |
| prune with BiP instead of IMP | ResNet-50 · ImageNet | sparsity of sparsest winning ticket (%): 80 -> 74 | Hurt |
| prune with BiP instead of IMP | ResNet-20 · CIFAR-100 | winning ticket existence: none -> 49% sparsity | Helped |
| prune with BiP instead of IMP for runtime | ResNet-18 · CIFAR-10 | pruning runtime (min): 620 -> 86 | Helped |
| remove implicit gradient term from BiP (ablation) | BiP · CIFAR-10 | test accuracy | Helped |
| add retraining/rewinding after BiP pruning (ablation) | BiP · CIFAR/others | test accuracy | No clear effect |
| increase lower-level SGD steps from 1 to 3 or 5 (ablation) | BiP · pruning | final test accuracy | No clear effect |
| train BiP longer than 100 epochs at high sparsity (ablation) | BiP · pruning | test accuracy | No clear effect |
| use different random batches for upper and lower levels instead of same batch (ablation) | BiP · pruning | test accuracy | Helped |
| reduce IMP retraining epochs per cycle to 20/40/80 (ablation) | IMP · pruning | accuracy | Hurt |
| increase lower-level regularization gamma too large or too small (ablation) | BiP · pruning | test accuracy | Mixed |
