Evaluating the merits of ranking in structured network pruning by Sharma, Kuldeep, Ramakrishnan, Nirmala, Prakash, Alok, Lam, Siew-Kei, Srikanthan, Thambipillai

“…However, recent studies on widely used DNNs, such as VGG-16, have shown that selecting and preserving salient channels using pruning criteria is not necessary since the plasticity of the network allows the accuracy to be recovered through fine-tuning. In this work, we further explore the value of the ranking criteria in pruning to show that if channels are removed gradually and iteratively, alternating with fine-tuning on the target dataset, ranking criteria are indeed not necessary to select redundant channels. …”

The Battle for ‘Trayvon Martin’: Mapping a Media Controversy Online and Offline by Graeff, Erhardt

“…But the story gained attention and controversy over Martin’s death dominated headlines, airwaves, and Twitter for months, thanks to a savvy publicist working on behalf of the victim’s parents and a series of campaigns off–line and online. Using the theories of networked gatekeeping and networked framing, we map out the vast media ecosystem using quantitative data about the content generated around the Trayvon Martin story in both off–line and online media, as well as measures of engagement with the story, to trace the interrelations among mainstream media, nonprofessional and social media, and their audiences. …”

Library cafes : next logical step by Pierce, William

“…But now, in the more relaxed, unencumbered age in which we live traditional library customs and practices once held sacrosanct are being re-evaluated in relation to the bottom line. And the bottom line, at least as far as public libraries are concerned, is getting more people to use the library.…”

Non-abelian representations of some sporadic geometries by Ivanov, Alexander A., Pasechnik, Dmitrii V., Shpectorov, Sergey V.

“…For a point-line incidence system S =(P, L) with three points per line we define the universal representation group of S asR(S)= 〈zp, p∈P|zp^2=1 for p∈P,zp zq zr = 1 for {p,q,r} ∈ L〉We prove that if G is the 2-local parabolic geometry of the sporadic simple group F1(the Monster) or F2(the Baby Monster) thenR(G)≅F1or 2·F2, respectively.…”
