State-of-the-art convolutional neural networks (CNNs) yield record-breaking predictive performance, yet at the cost of high-energy-consumption inference, that prohibits their widely deployments in resource-constrained Internet of Things (IoT) applications. We propose a dual dynamic inference (DDI) framework that highlights the following aspects: 1) we integrate both input-dependent and resource-dependent dynamic inference mechanisms under a unified framework in order to fit the varying IoT resource requirements in practice. DDI is able to both constantly suppress unnecessary costs for easy samples, and to halt inference for all samples to meet hard resource constraints enforced; 2) we propose a flexible multi-grained learning to skip (MGL2S) approach for input-dependent inference which allows simultaneous layer-wise and channel-wise skipping; 3) we extend DDI to complex CNN backbones such as DenseNet and show that DDI can be applied towards optimizing any specific resource goals including inference latency or energy cost. Extensive experiments demonstrate the superior inference accuracy-resource trade-off achieved by DDI, as well as the flexibility to control such trade-offs compared to existing peer methods. Specifically, DDI can achieve up to 4 times computational savings with the same or even higher accuracy as compared to existing competitive baselines.

Deep learning models typically use single-precision (FP32) floating point data types for representing activations and weights, but a slew of recent research work has shown that computations with reduced-precision data types (FP16, 16-bit integers, 8-
bit integers or even 4- or 2-bit integers) are enough to achieve same accuracy as FP32 and are much more efficient. Therefore, we designed fbgemm, a high-performance kernel library, from ground up to perform high-performance quantized inference on current generation CPUs. fbgemm achieves efficiency by fusing common quantization operations with a high-performance gemm implementation and by shape- and size-specific kernel code generation at runtime. The library has been deployed at Facebook, where it delivers greater than 2x performance gains with respect to our current production baseline.
User-facing software services are becoming increasingly reliant on remote servers to host Deep Neural Network (DNN) models, which perform inference tasks for the clients. Such services require the client to send input data to the service provider, wh
o processes it using a DNN and returns the output predictions to the client. Due to the rich nature of the inputs such as images and speech, the input often contains more information than what is necessary to perform the primary inference task. Consequently, in addition to the primary inference task, a malicious service provider could infer secondary (sensitive) attributes from the input, compromising the clients privacy. The goal of our work is to improve inference privacy by injecting noise to the input to hide the irrelevant features that are not conducive to the primary classification task. To this end, we propose Adaptive Noise Injection (ANI), which uses a light-weight DNN on the client-side to inject noise to each input, before transmitting it to the service provider to perform inference. Our key insight is that by customizing the noise to each input, we can achieve state-of-the-art trade-off between utility and privacy (up to 48.5% degradation in sensitive-task accuracy with <1% degradation in primary accuracy), significantly outperforming existing noise injection schemes. Our method does not require prior knowledge of the sensitive attributes and incurs minimal computational overheads.
Adaptive inference is an effective mechanism to achieve a dynamic tradeoff between accuracy and computational cost in deep networks. Existing works mainly exploit architecture redundancy in network depth or width. In this paper, we focus on spatial r
edundancy of input samples and propose a novel Resolution Adaptive Network (RANet), which is inspired by the intuition that low-resolution representations are sufficient for classifying easy inputs containing large objects with prototypical features, while only some hard samples need spatially detailed information. In RANet, the input images are first routed to a lightweight sub-network that efficiently extracts low-resolution representations, and those samples with high prediction confidence will exit early from the network without being further processed. Meanwhile, high-resolution paths in the network maintain the capability to recognize the hard samples. Therefore, RANet can effectively reduce the spatial redundancy involved in inferring high-resolution inputs. Empirically, we demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed RANet on the CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100 and ImageNet datasets in both the anytime prediction setting and the budgeted batch classification setting.
The effectiveness of deep neural networks (DNN) in vision, speech, and language processing has prompted a tremendous demand for energy-efficient high-performance DNN inference systems. Due to the increasing memory intensity of most DNN workloads, mai
n memory can dominate the systems energy consumption and stall time. One effective way to reduce the energy consumption and increase the performance of DNN inference systems is by using approximate memory, which operates with reduced supply voltage and reduced access latency parameters that violate standard specifications. Using approximate memory reduces reliability, leading to higher bit error rates. Fortunately, neural networks have an intrinsic capacity to tolerate increased bit errors. This can enable energy-efficient and high-performance neural network inference using approximate DRAM devices. Based on this observation, we propose EDEN, a general framework that reduces DNN energy consumption and DNN evaluation latency by using approximate DRAM devices, while strictly meeting a user-specified target DNN accuracy. EDEN relies on two key ideas: 1) retraining the DNN for a target approximate DRAM device to increase the DNNs error tolerance, and 2) efficient mapping of the error tolerance of each individual DNN data type to a corresponding approximate DRAM partition in a way that meets the user-specified DNN accuracy requirements. We evaluate EDEN on multi-core CPUs, GPUs, and DNN accelerators with error models obtained from real approximate DRAM devices. For a target accuracy within 1% of the original DNN, our results show that EDEN enables 1) an average DRAM energy reduction of 21%, 37%, 31%, and 32% in CPU, GPU, and two DNN accelerator architectures, respectively, across a variety of DNNs, and 2) an average (maximum) speedup of 8% (17%) and 2.7% (5.5%) in CPU and GPU architectures, respectively, when evaluating latency-bound DNNs.
We present a modern scalable reinforcement learning agent called SEED (Scalable, Efficient Deep-RL). By effectively utilizing modern accelerators, we show that it is not only possible to train on millions of frames per second but also to lower the co
st of experiments compared to current methods. We achieve this with a simple architecture that features centralized inference and an optimized communication layer. SEED adopts two state of the art distributed algorithms, IMPALA/V-trace (policy gradients) and R2D2 (Q-learning), and is evaluated on Atari-57, DeepMind Lab and Google Research Football. We improve the state of the art on Football and are able to reach state of the art on Atari-57 three times faster in wall-time. For the scenarios we consider, a 40% to 80% cost reduction for running experiments is achieved. The implementation along with experiments is open-sourced so results can be reproduced and novel ideas tried out.
