Robust Binary Models by Pruning Randomly-initialized Networks

Sabine Süsstrunk, Mathieu Salzmann, Chen Liu

Robustness to adversarial attacks was shown to require a larger model capacity, and thus a larger memory footprint. In this paper, we introduce an approach to obtain robust yet compact models by pruning randomly-initialized binary networks. Unlike adversar ...
