对Kaldi nnet3进行奇异值分解（SVD）以减小模型大小

用处

基于SVD实现模型压缩以适配低功耗平台

 
 

根据nnet3bin/nnet3-copy，nnet3-copy或nnet3-am-copy的"--edits-config"参数中，新支持了以下选项：

apply-svd name=<name-pattern> bottleneck-dim=<dim>

查找所有名字与<name-pattern>匹配的组件，类型需要是AffineComponent或其子类。如果<dim>小于组件的输入或输出维数，则对组件参数进行奇异值分解，只保留最大<dim>奇异值，将这些组件替换为两个组件：LinearComponent和NaturalGradientAffineComponent（的序列）。又见'reduce-rank'。

 
 

示例cd

dir=`mktemp -d`

nnet3-am-copy --edits='apply-svd name=*.affine bottleneck-dim=64' $dir/final.mdl $dir/final_svd.mdl

 
 

vimdiff <(nnet3-info --print-args=false $dir/final.raw 2>&1|sort) <(nnet3-info --print-args=false $dir/final.raw 2>&1|sort)

结果

经过解码测试，SVD后的模型识别率极差，完全无法使用。

需要再对模型进行retrain。

 
 

使用SVD实现模型压缩后，再进行几轮迭代

在已有训练样本的情况在，假设总iteration=2000，，将final.mdl进行SVD得到final_svd.mdl，再链接为0.mdl，运行一个epoch：local/chain/run_tdnn.sh --stage 16 --num_epochs 1

在之前的epoch的基础上，再训几个epochs

local/chain/run_tdnn.sh --stage 16 --num_epochs 2 --train_stage 1155
