Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed for storing neural networks and weights for neural networks. In some implementations, a method is provided. The method includes storing a plurality of weights of a neural network comprising a plurality of nodes and a plurality of connections between the plurality of nodes. Each weight of the plurality of weights is associated with a connection of the plurality of connections. The neural network comprises a binarized neural network. The method also includes receiving input data to be processed by the neural network. The method further includes determining whether a set of weights of the plurality of weights comprises one or more errors. The method further includes refraining from using the set of weights to process the input data using the neural network in response to determining that the set of weights comprises the one or more errors.
