Dynamic Model Pruning with Feedback

Martin Jaggi, Sebastian Urban Stich, Tao Lin, Luis Felipe Barba Flores

Deep neural networks often have millions of parameters. This can hinder their deployment to low-end devices, not only due to high memory requirements but also because of increased latency at inference. We propose a novel model compression method that gener ...

A Personalized Approach to Improve Walking Detection in Real-Life Settings: Application to Children with Cerebral Palsy

Kamiar Aminian, Anisoara Ionescu, Lena Carcreff

Although many methods have been developed to detect walking by using body-worn inertial sensors, their performances decline when gait patterns become abnormal, as seen in children with cerebral palsy (CP). The aim of this study was to evaluate if fine-tuni ...
