• Abstract: Running Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) based applications on edge devices near the source of data can meet the latency and privacy challenges. However due to their reduced computing resources and their energy constraints, these edge devices can hardly satisfy CNN needs in processing and data storage. For these platforms, choosing the CNN with the best trade-off between accuracy and execution time while respecting Hardware constraints is crucial. In this paper, we present and compare five (5) of the widely used Machine Learning based methods for execution time prediction of CNNs on two (2) edge GPU platforms. For these 5 methods, we also explore the time needed for their training and tuning their corresponding hyperparameters. Finally, we compare times to run the prediction models on different platforms. The utilization of these methods will highly facilitate design space exploration by providing quickly the best CNN on a target edge GPU. Experimental results show that eXtreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost) provides a less than 14.73% average prediction error even for unexplored and unseen CNN models' architectures. Random Forest (RF) depicts comparable accuracy but needs more effort and time to be trained. The other 3 approaches (OLS, MLP and SVR) are less accurate for CNN performances estimation.

  We reexamine the design distinctions and test the limits of what a sparse CNN can achieve. We propose two key components, i.e., adaptive receptive fields (spatially) and adaptive relation, to bridge the gap. This exploration led to the creation of Omni-Adaptive 3D CNNs (OA-CNNs), a family of networks that integrates a lightweight module.

  Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have constantly achieved better performance over years by introducing more complex topology, and enlarging the capacity towards deeper and wider CNNs. The computational cost is still the bottleneck of automatically designing CNNs. In this paper, inspired by transfer learning, a new evolutionary computation based framework is proposed to efficiently evolve CNNs.

  The prediction accuracy of the deep neural networks (DNNs) after deployment at the edge can suffer with time due to shifts in the distribution of the new data. Recent prediction-time unsupervised DNN adaptation techniques have been introduced that improve prediction accuracy of the models for noisy data by re-tuning the batch normalization parameters. This paper, for the first time, performs a comprehensive measurement study of such techniques to quantify their performance and energy on various edge devices.
