TEE-X is a TEE‑aware acceleration framework designed to run large vision models, such as Vision Transformers, entirely within Trusted Execution Environments. It introduces a sensitivity‑aware modularization technique and vectorization to overcome memory constraints and latency challenges on edge devices. The framework is validated on OP‑TEE for Arm TrustZone and optimized for the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier, achieving GPU‑level inference latency with minimal accuracy‑latency trade‑offs.

The paper introduces RAMP, a method for robust adaptive mixed‑precision quantization of vision models on edge CPUs. It evaluates 13 sensitivity metrics across four neural networks, finding that Jensen‑Shannon Divergence consistently identifies layers that can be safely quantized. Using K‑Means clustering on these metrics, RAMP achieves near‑lossless accuracy with an average 1.81× speed‑up, while cautioning against excluding low‑speed‑up layers that can fragment the computational graph.
Deploying deep learning models on edge CPUs is bottlenecked by computational and memory constraints. Mixed-precision quantization promises to reduce inference latency while preserving accuracy. Howeve...

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.
