Symmetric Convolutional Filters: A Novel Way to Constrain Parameters in CNNHarish Agrawal, Sumana T., S. K. Nandy
We propose a novel technique to constrain parameters in CNN based on symmetric filters. We investigate the impact on SOTA networks when varying the combinations of symmetricity. We demonstrate that our models offer effective generalisation and a structured elimination of redundancy in parameters. We conclude by comparing our method with other pruning techniques.
