ParameterNet: Parameters Are All You Need
The large-scale visual pretraining has significantly improve the performance of large vision models. However, we observe the \emph{low FLOPs pitfall} that the existing low-FLOPs models cannot benefit from large-scale pretraining. In this paper, we introduce a novel design principle, termed ParameterNet, aimed at augmenting the number of parameters in large-scale visual pretraining models while minimizing the increase in FLOPs. We leverage dynamic convolutions to incorporate additional parameters into the networks with only a marginal rise in FLOPs. The ParameterNet approach allows low-FLOPs networks to take advantage of large-scale visual pretraining. Furthermore, we extend the ParameterNet concept to the language domain to enhance inference results while preserving inference speed. Experiments on the large-scale ImageNet-22K have shown the superiority of our ParameterNet scheme. For example, ParameterNet-600M can achieve higher accuracy on ImageNet than the widely-used Swin Transformer (81.6\% \emph{vs.} 80.9\%) and has much lower FLOPs (0.6G \emph{vs.} 4.5G). In the language domain, LLaMA-1B enhanced with ParameterNet achieves 2\% higher accuracy over vanilla LLaMA. The code will be released at \url{https://parameternet.github.io/}.

AllNeural Implicit Flow: a mesh-agnostic dimensionality reduction paradigm of spatio-temporal data
High-dimensional spatio-temporal dynamics can often be encoded in a low-dimensional subspace. Engineering applications for modeling, characterization, design, and control of such large-scale systems often rely on dimensi…
Dimensionality ReductionOverparameterization from Computational Constraints
Overparameterized models with millions of parameters have been hugely successful. In this work, we ask: can the need for large models be, at least in part, due to the \emph{computational} limitations of the learner? Addi…
Clinical Parameters Prediction for Gait Disorder Recognition
Being able to predict clinical parameters in order to diagnose gait disorders in a patient is of great value in planning treatments. It is known that \textit{decision parameters} such as cadence, step length, and walking…
