Low-rank Tensor Decomposition for Compression of Convolutional Neural Networks Using Funnel Regularization

Tensor decomposition is one of the fundamental technique for model compression of deep convolution neural networks owing to its ability to reveal the latent relations among complex structures. However, most existing methods compress the networks layer by layer, which cannot provide a satisfactory solution to achieve global optimization. In this paper, we proposed a model reduction method to compress the pre-trained networks using low-rank tensor decomposition of the convolution layers. Our method is based on the optimization techniques to select the proper ranks of decomposed network layers. A new regularization method, called funnel function, is proposed to suppress the unimportant factors during the compression, so the proper ranks can be revealed much easier. The experimental results show that our algorithm can reduce more model parameters than other tensor compression methods. For ResNet18 with ImageNet2012, our reduced model can reach more than twi times speed up in terms of GMAC with merely 0.7% Top-1 accuracy drop, which outperforms most existing methods in both metrics.
