arXiv:2605. 16138v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Neural architecture search (NAS) is a powerful approach for automating model design, but existing methods often optimize for accuracy alone or rely on proxy metrics such as bit operations (BOPs) that correlate poorly with hardware cost.

arXiv:2606. 20869v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present a holistic methodology for artificial intelligence algorithm and accelerator co-design, co-search, and co-generation (A3C3), which jointly optimizes neural network architectures and their hardware implementations to address the inefficiencies of traditional top-down AI system design flows.

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.

ONNX-Net introduces a universal representation for neural architectures using natural language descriptions, enabling instant performance prediction across diverse search spaces. The authors present ONNX-Bench, a benchmark of over 600k architecture–accuracy pairs compiled from open‑source NAS‑bench networks in ONNX format. Experiments demonstrate strong zero‑shot predictive performance with minimal pretraining, overcoming the limitations of cell‑based, graph‑encoded approaches.
