The paper presents TinyTNAS, a novel hardware-aware multi-objective Neural Architecture Search (NAS) tool designed for TinyML time series classification. Unlike traditional NAS methods that rely on GPU capabilities, TinyTNAS operates efficiently on CPUs, making it accessible for a broader range of applications. The tool allows users to define constraints on RAM, FLASH, and MAC operations to discover optimal neural network architectures within these parameters. Additionally, the tool enables time-bound searches, ensuring the best possible model is found within a user-specified duration. TinyTNAS demonstrates state-of-the-art accuracy with significant reductions in RAM, FLASH, MAC usage, and latency across various benchmark datasets.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
TinyTNAS is a new tool that helps find the best tiny machine learning models for time series classification tasks. It’s special because it can work on regular computers (CPUs) instead of super powerful machines (GPUs). This means more people can use it to make smaller, faster, and more efficient models. The tool lets you set limits on how much memory or processing power a model needs, and then finds the best model that fits within those limits. It’s also very fast, taking just 10 minutes to find the best model for some tasks!
