1. A system, comprising:
one or more processors to perform one or more operations comprising:
processing data using a neural network to perform at least one of a classification operation, a computer vision operation, or an anomaly detection operation, wherein the neural network comprises: a plurality of network layers that includes at least a first network layer and a second network layer, wherein the first network layer includes a first set of filters, and the second network layer includes a second set of filters, and wherein a bias associated with a filter included in the second set of filters compensates for a bias associated with another filter that was removed from the first network layer during training of the neural network.
