Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) are driving new applications in AI, data science and intelligent systems. Yet, their training demands significant computational power, leading to a need for energy-efficient techniques that work well on lightweight devices. Random sparse ANNs have shown promise in addressing this challenge. However, the full understanding...
