Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / Computer Vision is a mathematical tool formulated to extend human vision to machines.
This tool can perform various tasks such as object classification, object tracking, motion
estimation, and image segmentation. These tasks find their use in many applications, namely robotics, self-driving cars, augmented reality, and mobile applications. However, opposed to the traditional technique of incorporating handcrafted features to understand images, convolution neural networks are being used to perform the same function.
Computer vision applications widely use CNNs due to their stellar performance in interpreting images. Over the years, there have been numerous advancements in machine learning, particularly to CNNs.However, the need to improve their accuracy, model size and complexity increased, making their deployment in restricted environments a challenge.
Many researchers proposed techniques to reduce the size of CNN while still retaining
its accuracy. Few of these include network quantization, pruning, low rank, and sparse
decomposition and knowledge distillation. Some methods developed efficient models from
scratch. This thesis achieves a similar goal using design space exploration techniques on the latest variant of MobileNets, MobileNet V3. Using DPD blocks, escalation in the number of expansion filters in some layers and mish activation function MobileNet V3 is reduced to 84.96% in size and made 0.2% more accurate. Furthermore, it is deployed in NXP i.MX RT1060 for image classification on CIFAR-10 dataset.
