"""Helper functions to add support for magnitude-based model pruning.

  # Adds variables and ops to the graph to enable
  # elementwise masking of weights
  apply_mask(weights)

  # Returns a list containing the sparsity of each of the weight tensors
  get_weight_sparsity()

  # Returns a list of all the masked weight tensorflow variables

  The Pruning class uses a tf.hparams object to set up the
  parameters for a model pruning. Here's a typical usage:

  # Parse pruning hyperparameters
  pruning_hparams = pruning.get_pruning_hparams().parse(FLAGS.pruning_hparams)

  # Create a pruning object using the pruning_hparams
  p = pruning.Pruning(pruning_hparams)

  # Add mask update ops to the graph
  mask_update_op = p.conditional_mask_update_op()

  # Add the summaries
  p.add_pruning_summaries()

  # Run the op
  session.run(mask_update_op)

  # An object of the pruning also accepts externally defined sparsity:
  sparsity = tf.Variable(0.5, name = "ConstantSparsity")
  p = pruning.Pruning(pruning_hparams, sparsity=sparsity)
