Deep Learning On A Data Diet
A common practice is to train small models until they converge and then run a compression technique lightly. Techniques like parameter pruning have already become popular for reducing redundancies without sacrificing accuracy.
Identifying important training data plays a role in online and active learning. But how much of the data is superfluous? Which examples are important for generalisation? And how does one find them?

TensorFlow-Ranking over years
Three years ago, Google introduced TF-Ranking, an open-source TensorFlow-based library for developing scalable neural learning-to-rank (LTR) models. Compared to standard classification models that classify one item at a time, LTR models receive an entire list of items as input and learn an ordering that maximises the utility of the entire list.
In May this year, Google launched the latest version of TF-Ranking that enables full support for natively building LTR models using Keras, a high-level API of TensorFlow 2.
