The paper discusses TinyML, which deploys machine learning on devices with limited memory and computing resources. It introduces a preliminary study using the tree depth prune instance hardness method to control thresholds in TinyML systems. The results suggest that adjusting these thresholds can reduce energy consumption while maintaining classification quality.

ENAS is a hardware‑aware neural architecture search framework tailored for TinyML on microcontrollers. It uses a static feasibility check, a cell‑based search space with various block types and skip connections, and a three‑stage hybrid search strategy (random → top‑K → mutation) with cross‑run caching. The framework runs efficiently without GPUs, achieving significant search‑time speedups and competitive accuracy on Visual Wake Words and Melanoma Cancer benchmarks across a range of microcontrollers.

The paper presents a novel multi‑exit computational scheme for TinyML on an ultra‑low‑power GAP9 SoC, adding confidence‑based gating points to a MobileNetV2 CNN for ImageNet‑100. By allowing inference to stop early, the approach cuts average MAC operations by 41 % (from 313 MMAC to 185 MMAC), reduces inference time by 29 % (49 ms to 35 ms), and saves 24 % in energy (2.1 mJ to 1.6 mJ per frame) with only a ~1 % drop in accuracy. Compared to a state‑of‑the‑art adaptive CNN on the same hardware, the method more than doubles computational efficiency, raising MAC/cycle from 8.1 to 17.2.

We propose OrchNAS, an energy-aware, personalised, federated edge intelligence framework that leverages a Neural Architecture Search Service to automatically design service-adaptive models for heterogeneous edge environments. The framework orchestrates the architecture search process on a server-side NAS service, enabling edge services to derive personalised architectures under device-level energy, computation, and memory constraints.

The paper presents a rapid pipeline for training and deploying machine‑learning models on the WeBe Band, a wrist‑worn wearable device. It automates the creation of hardware‑efficient models, integrates with the Piccolo AI ecosystem, and supports OTA deployment while profiling latency and memory usage. Experimental results show trade‑offs between classical models and lightweight neural networks for real‑time performance on a microcontroller.
