Algorithms for Efficient Inference in Convolutional Neural Networks

In recent years, the accuracy of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) has improved significantly because of three main factors: the availability of massive amounts training data, the introduction of powerful low-cost computational resources, and the development of complex deep learning models. The cloud can provide powerful computational resources to...

ReAF: Reducing approximation of channels by reducing feature reuse within convolution

High-level feature maps of Convolutional Neural Networks are computed by reusing their corresponding low-level feature maps, which brings into full play feature reuse to improve the computational efficiency. This form of feature reuse is referred to as feature reuse between convolutional layers. The second type of feature reuse is referred to...
