Linear-Time Non-Local Codec Placement for Machine Learning Model Compression

Matteo Spallanzani

On-device inference imposes constraints on model storage and operand traffic and thus benefits from compressed operand representations, which mandate the use of encoding and decodi…

Reducing Neural Architecture Search Spaces with Training-Free Statistics and Computational Graph Clustering

Thorir Mar Ingolfsson, Mark Vero, Xiaying Wang +3

The computational demands of neural architecture search (NAS) algorithms are usually directly proportional to the size of their target search spaces. Thus, limiting the search to h…

Training Quantised Neural Networks with STE Variants: the Additive Noise Annealing Algorithm

Matteo Spallanzani, Gian Paolo Leonardi, Luca Benini

Training quantised neural networks (QNNs) is a non-differentiable optimisation problem since weights and features are output by piecewise constant functions. The standard solution…

ZippyPoint: Fast Interest Point Detection, Description, and Matching through Mixed Precision Discretization

Menelaos Kanakis, Simon Maurer, Matteo Spallanzani +2

Efficient detection and description of geometric regions in images is a prerequisite in visual systems for localization and mapping. Such systems still rely on traditional hand-cra…
