Reducing Deep Network Complexity via Sparse Hierarchical Fourier Interaction Networks

Abstract

This paper presents a Sparse Hierarchical Fourier Interaction Networks, an architectural building block that unifies three complementary principles of frequency domain modeling: A hierarchical patch wise Fourier transform that affords simultaneous access to local detail and global context; A learnable, differentiable top K masking mechanism which retains only the most informative spectral coefficients, thereby exploiting the natural compressibility of visual and linguistic signals.
