Proposes SCHTs, a semi-structured dynamic sparse training framework aiming to combine the accuracy of unstructured DST with the hardware efficiency of semi-structured sparsity for edge deployment.

Problem

Unstructured dynamic sparse training yields irregular weight distributions that add index overhead and hurt computational efficiency on edge hardware, while semi-structured sparsity is efficient but typically loses accuracy at high sparsity.

Approach

A semi-structured dynamic sparse training framework (SCHTs) that trains sparse networks with hardware-friendly semi-structured patterns during dynamic topology updates, to close the accuracy gap with unstructured DST. Details are not available beyond the abstract.
