• Abstract: The state-of-the-art deep neural networks (DNNs) have been widely applied for various real-world applications, and achieved significant performance for cognitive problems. However, the increment of DNNs' width and depth in architecture results in a huge amount of parameters to challenge the storage and memory cost, limiting to the usage of DNNs on resource-constrained platforms, such as portable devices. By converting redundant models into compact ones, compression technique appears to be a practical solution to reducing the storage and memory consumption. In this paper, we develop a nonlinear tensor ring network (NTRN) in which both fullyconnected and convolutional layers are compressed via tensor ring decomposition. Furthermore, to mitigate the accuracy loss caused by compression, a nonlinear activation function is embedded into the tensor contraction and convolution operations inside the compressed layer. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of the proposed NTRN for image classification using two basic neural networks, LeNet-5 and VGG-11 on three datasets, viz. MNIST, Fashion MNIST and Cifar-10.

  We propose a novel low-rank CNNs compression method based on reduced storage direct tensor ring decomposition (RSDTR) The proposed method offers a higher circular mode permutation flexibility, and it is characterized by large parameter and FLOPS compression rates. Experiments, performed on the CIFAR-10 and ImageNet datasets, clearly demonstrate the efficiency of RSDTR in comparison to other state-of-the-art CNNs compression approaches.

  This paper introduces the novel concept of Spiking-UNet for image processing, which combines the power of Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) with the U-Net architecture. To achieve an efficient Spiking-UNet, we face two primary challenges: ensuring high-fidelity information propagation through the network via spikes and formulating an effective training strategy. Experimental results show that, on image segmentation and denoising, our Spiking-UNet achieves comparable performance to its non-spiking counterpart.
