Optimizing DNNs Model Partitioning for Enhanced Performance on Edge Devices
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) have proven effective in various applications due to their dominant performance. However, integrating DNNs into edge devices remains challenging due to the large size of the DNN model, which requires efficient model parallelization and workload partitioning. Previous attempts to address these challenges have focused on data and model parallelism but have fallen short in terms of finding the optimal DNN model partitions for efficient distribution, considering available resources. This paper presents a pipelined DNN model parallelism framework that improves the performance of DNNs on edge devices. The framework optimizes DNN model training by determining the optimal number of partitions based on available edge resources. This is achieved through a combination of data and model parallelism techniques, which efficiently distribute the workload across multiple processors to reduce training time. The framework also includes a task controller to manage computing resources effectively. The experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach, showing a significant reduction in the model training time compared to a baseline model AlexNet.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
