主講人 : 香港城市大學(xué)Prof.Dapeng Oliver Wu

Neural network pruning is an essential technique for reducing the size and complexity of deep neural networks, enabling large-scale models on devices with limited resources. However, existing pruning approaches heavily rely on training data for guiding the pruning strategies, making them ineffective for federated learning over distributed and confidential datasets. Additionally, the memory- and computation-intensive pruning process becomes infeasible for recourse-constrained devices in federated learning. To address these challenges, we propose FedTiny, a distributed pruning  work for federated learning that generates specialized tiny models for memory- and computing-constrained devices. This talk presents the design of FedTiny and demonstrates the effectiveness of FedTiny.
