AutoLR: Layer-wise Pruning and Auto-tuning of Learning Rates in Fine-tuning of Deep Networks
Youngmin Ro, Jin Young Choi
Existing fine-tuning methods use a single learning rate over all layers. In this paper, first, we discuss that trends of layer-wise weight variations by fine-tuning using a single learning rate do not match the well-known notion that lower-level layers extract general features and higher-level layers extract specific features. Based on our discussion, we propose an algorithm that improves fine-tuning performance and reduces network complexity through layer-wise pruning and auto-tuning of layer-wise learning rates. The proposed algorithm has verified the effectiveness by achieving state-of-the-art performance on the image retrieval benchmark datasets (CUB-200, Cars-196, Stanford online product, and Inshop).
