very useful since it's basically impossible to do manually at the terminal.
cleaner uninstall.

"Thank you, deleting the config file and letting xorg recreate it solved it."

The results are quite impressive! We compared against compression algorithms on MNIST, where sparse momentum outperforms most other methods. This is a pretty good result given that compression methods start from a dense network and usually retrain repetitively while we train a sparse network from scratch! Another impressive result is that we can match or even exceed the performance of dense networks by using 20% of weights (80% sparsity). On CIFAR-10, we compare against Single-shot Network Pruning which is designed for simplicity and not performance — so it is not surprising that sparse momentum does better. However, what is interesting is that we can train both VGG16-D (a version of VGG16 with two fully connected layers) and Wide Residual Network (WRN) 16-10 (16 layers deep and very wide WRN) to dense performance levels with just 5% of weights. For other networks, sparse momentum comes close to dense performance levels. Furthermore, as I will show later, with an optimized sparse convolution algorithm, we would be able to train a variety of networks to yield the same performance levels while training between 3.0-5.6x faster!
