New partial fusion method balances neural network performance and cost

Researchers have introduced a new method called partial fusion for neural networks, which aims to balance performance and computational cost. This technique interpolates between traditional ensembles and weight aggregation, allowing for a flexible trade-off. The approach identifies and aggregates similar neurons across different networks using partial optimal transport, effectively acting as a generalized pruning method for ensemble models. AI
