Key Takeaways
Full Summary
Edge computing environments require efficient deep neural network deployment due to limitations in energy and latency. To address this, Adaptive Deep Neural Networks (ADNNs) utilizing the Multi-Armed Bandit (MAB) framework were enhanced with four new Upper Confidence Bound (UCB) strategies: UCB-V, UCB-Tuned, UCB-Bayes, and UCB-BwK.
These strategies were tested on ResNet and MobileViT architectures using benchmark datasets like CIFAR-10 and CIFAR-100. Experimental results indicated that all strategies achieved sub-linear cumulative regret, with UCB-Bayes showing the fastest convergence.
UCB-V and UCB-Tuned were particularly effective, dominating the trade-offs between accuracy and both latency and energy consumption. This comparative analysis provides insights into optimizing neural network performance in resource-constrained environments.
