Overview
This is an end to end example showing the usage of the sparsity and cluster preserving quantization aware training (PCQAT) API, part of the TensorFlow Model Optimization Toolkit's collaborative optimization pipeline.
Other pages
For an introduction to the pipeline and other available techniques, see the collaborative optimization overview page.
Contents
In the tutorial, you will:
- Train a
tf.keras
model for the MNIST dataset from scratch. - Fine-tune the model with pruning and see the accuracy and observe that the model was successfully pruned.
- Apply sparsity preserving clustering on the pruned model and observe that the sparsity applied earlier has been preserved.
- Apply QAT and observe the loss of sparsity and clusters.
- Apply PCQAT and observe that both sparsity and clustering applied earlier have been preserved.
- Generate a TFLite model and observe the effects of applying PCQAT on it.
- Compare the sizes of the different models to observe the compression benefits of applying sparsity followed by the collaborative optimization techniques of sparsity preserving clustering and PCQAT.
- Compare the accurracy of the fully optimized model with the un-optimized baseline model accuracy.

Conclusion
In this tutorial, you learned how to create a model, prune it using the prune_low_magnitude()
API, and apply sparsity preserving clustering using the cluster_weights()
API to preserve sparsity while clustering the weights.
Next, sparsity and cluster preserving quantization aware training (PCQAT) was applied to preserve model sparsity and clusters while using QAT. The final PCQAT model was compared to the QAT one to show that sparsity and clusters are preserved in the former and lost in the latter.
Next, the models were converted to TFLite to show the compression benefits of chaining sparsity, clustering, and PCQAT model optimization techniques and the TFLite model was evaluated to ensure that the accuracy persists in the TFLite backend.
Finally, the PCQAT TFLite model accuracy was compared to the pre-optimization baseline model accuracy to show that collaborative optimization techniques managed to achieve the compression benefits while maintaining a similar accuracy compared to the original model.
