This paper addresses the issue of low-frequency learning (LFL) in large language and vision models, which occurs when dataset pruning is used to reduce training costs. LFL causes the model to forget most samples as the pruning rate increases. To address this, the authors decompose the scoring function of LFL, provide a theoretical explanation for its inefficiency, and propose adding a memory term to enhance the model’s memory capability. They also explore memory in self-supervised learning (SSL) and derive a memory term both theoretically and experimentally. The proposed Enhance Memory Pruning (EMP) method addresses the issue of insufficient memory under high pruning rates by enhancing the model’s memory of data, improving its performance. The authors evaluate EMP on tasks such as image classification, natural language understanding, and model pre-training, showing that it outperforms current methods with 2.2% improvement in CIFAR100-ResNet50 pre-training task at 70% pruning rate.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
LFL prevents large language and vision models from remembering most samples when dataset pruning is used to reduce training costs. The authors propose adding a memory term to the scoring function to enhance the model’s memory capability, as well as exploring memory in self-supervised learning (SSL). They also develop Enhance Memory Pruning (EMP), which improves model performance under extreme pruning rates.
