• Abstract summary: Kernel approximation is widely used to scale up kernel SVM training and prediction. Memory and computation costs of kernel approximation models are still too high if we want to deploy them on memory-limited devices. We propose a novel memory and computation-efficient kernel SVM model by using both binary embedding and binary model coefficients.

• Abstract: Kernel approximation is widely used to scale up kernel SVM training and prediction. However, the memory and computation costs of kernel approximation models are still too high if we want to deploy them on memory-limited devices such as mobile phones, smartwatches, and IoT devices. To address this challenge, we propose a novel memory and computation-efficient kernel SVM model by using both binary embedding and binary model coefficients. First, we propose an efficient way to generate compact binary embedding of the data, preserving the kernel similarity. Second, we propose a simple but effective algorithm to learn a linear classification model with ternary coefficients that can support different types of loss function and regularizer. Our algorithm can achieve better generalization accuracy than existing works on learning binary coefficients since we allow coefficient to be $-1$, $0$, or $1$ during the training stage, and coefficient $0$ can be removed during model inference for binary classification. Moreover, we provide a detailed analysis of the convergence of our algorithm and the inference complexity of our model. The analysis shows that the convergence to a local optimum is guaranteed, and the inference complexity of our model is much lower than other competing methods. Our experimental results on five large real-world datasets have demonstrated that our proposed method can build accurate nonlinear SVM models with memory costs less than 30KB.

We propose a practical and scalable approach to solve this problem via mixture of experts (MoE) based model fusion. By ensembling the weights of specialized single-task models, the MoE module can effectively capture the trade-offs between multiple objectives.
