arXiv:2607. 15745v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Common practice when training Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) is to use randomly shuffled mini-batches.
By Anxhelo Shehu, Enes Stastoli, Arben Cela
Accurate pre-deployment estimation of CNN inference cost--energy, latency, and peak memory--is increasingly critical as models are deployed on resource-constrained GPU platforms. Existing approaches rely on FLOPs, latency measurements, or single-device profiling as energy proxies, overlooking the non-linear interactions between architectural design and hardware load.
arXiv:2607. 01984v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Newer lightweight convolutional neural networks are often presented as improving predictive performance and deployment efficiency, but such claims require controlled evaluation.
