Abstract

The invention provides a method for cutting a neural network model. The method includes: based on the lowest importance of neurons in a to-be-clipped neuron layer, determining that the first neuron isa to-be-clipped neuron, and determining the second neuron as a to-be-clipped neuron based on the minimum difference degree with the first neuron, and so on, determining the neuron with the minimum difference degree with the previous to-be-clipped neuron as a new to-be-clipped neuron until the number of clipped neurons meets the preset number of to-be-clipped neurons. The cut neurons have the lowest importance degree; the accuracy of the neural network model is not greatly influenced by the neural network model with the lowest importance degree and the neuron with the lowest difference degreefrom the neuron with the lowest importance degree, the compression cutting of the neural network model is completed on the premise of ensuring the data processing accuracy of the neural network model,and the neural network model is conveniently deployed on edge equipment.

Description

technical field [0001] The present application relates to the field of electronic equipment, and more specifically, relates to a method for clipping a neural network model and electronic equipment. Background technique [0002] "Edge intelligence", as the last mile of artificial intelligence to implement in real life, needs to run complex deep neural network models on terminal devices. [0003] With the increasing demand for machine intelligence in the field of artificial intelligence, the design of the structure of the neural network becomes more and more complex, and the amount of calculation and storage space required also increases greatly. However, portable devices at the edge (such as FaceID ( face authentication), UAVs, decentralized autonomous driving systems, etc.) have limited computing and storage resources, which makes it difficult for deep neural networks to be efficiently deployed on edge devices. Therefore, the neural network model needs to be compressed and ...
