IPC: G06N3/063
Filed: 2019-11-14
Abstract: To efficiently execute deep convolutional neural networks (CNN) on edge devices (e.g., wearable device like an Apple Watch or FitBit) it may be necessary to reduce the bit width of the network parameters down to 1-bit. Binarization at the first layer of a CNN has typically not been performed because it may lead to an increase in the output validation error of the input data. The method and systems provided include a binary input layer (BIL) which accepts binary input data by learning bit specific binary weights. By executing the CNN using binary input data, the present method and system may result in a reduction in the chip area consumed and the energy used in contrast to CNN models executed using floating point input data.
