Title: Improved Bayesian Compression,
Abstract: Compression of Neural Networks (NN) has become a highly studied topic in
recent years. The main reason for this is the demand for industrial scale usage
of NNs such as deploying them on mobile devices, storing them efficiently,
transmitting them via band-limited channels and most importantly doing
inference at scale. In this work, we propose to join the Soft-Weight Sharing
and Variational Dropout approaches that show strong results to define a new
state-of-the-art in terms of model compression.
