An accuracy-aware extension to LRP-based pruning for CNNs to prevent cascading accuracy degradation in data-scarce transfer learning

arXiv:2511.10861v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) pre-trained on large-scale datasets such as ImageNet are widely used as feature extractors to construct high-accuracy classification models from scarce data for specific tasks. In such scenarios, fine-tuning the pre-trained CNN is difficult due to data scarcity, necessitating the use of fixed weights. However, when the weights are kept fixed, many filters that do not contribute to the target task remain in the model, leading to unnecessary redundancy and reduced efficiency. Therefore, effective metho
