her alternative, the group sparse regularisation deep learning

aims to group neurons or regularise neurons to achieve a better

erpretation capability [Scardapane, et al., 2017; Lin and Runger,

n well recognised that few neurons can promote a better

l complexity while maintaining the model accuracy is still an

ject for research. The promising ideas of new research suggest

more interpretable machine learning models [Heaven, 2019].
