Paper develops a statistical framework for quantized training of deep neural networks.
New method quantizes neural networks for mobile devices.
As the will to deploy neural networks models on embedded systems grows, and considering the related memory footprint and energy consumption issues, finding lighter solutions to store neural networks such as weight quantization and more efficient inference methods become major research topics. Parallel to that, adversar…
This paper presents a novel end-to-end methodology for enabling the deployment of low-error deep networks on microcontrollers. To fit the memory and computational limitations of resource-constrained edge-devices, we exploit mixed low-bitwidth compression, featuring 8, 4 or 2-bit uniform quantization, and we model the i…
Outliers in weights and activations pose a key challenge for fixed-point quantization of neural networks. While they can be addressed by fine-tuning, this is not practical for ML service providers (e.g., Google or Microsoft) who often receive customer models without training data. Specialized hardware for handling acti…
Deep quantization of neural networks (below eight bits) offers significant promise in reducing their compute and storage cost. Albeit alluring, without special techniques for training and optimization, deep quantization results in significant accuracy loss. To further mitigate this loss, we propose a novel sinusoidal r…
