Task: Summarization
Input (English): Edge intelligence especially binary neural network (BNN) has attracted considerable attention of the artificial intelligence community recently. BNNs significantly reduce the computational cost, model size, and memory footprint.   However, there is still a performance gap between the successful full-precision neural network with ReLU activation and BNNs. We argue that the accuracy drop of BNNs is due to their geometry. 
 We analyze the behaviour of the full-precision neural network with ReLU activation and compare it with its binarized counterpart. This comparison suggests random bias initialization as a remedy to activation saturation in full-precision networks and  leads us towards an improved BNN training. Our numerical experiments confirm our geometric intuition.
Output (English): Improve saturating activations (sigmoid, tanh, htanh etc.) and Binarized Neural Network with Bias Initialization
