The current deep learning training paradigm employs end-to-end backpropagation, regardless of the training stage, i.e. pre-training or fine-tuning. However, backpropagating through the entire model is neither biologically plausible nor memory efficient, since learning inside the brain is highly localized. Therefore, we propose LocalProp, a training procedure that locally updates the weights of a model. Our neuro-localized weight updates follow the "pre-training then fine-tuning" paradigm, where the pre-training is based on I-JEPA. After locally updating the weights, a pruning operation is performed, followed by a short final fine-tuning phase. Pruning helps by sending the learning signal from higher blocks to lower blocks. We perform experiments on several datasets, including large-scale benchmarks such as ImageNet, and empirically show that LocalProp reaches good performance at a fraction of GPU peak memory. By varying the number of jointly optimized blocks, we identify gradient-propagation span as a practical control over the accuracy-memory trade-off.
