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 introduces the Quantization Analysis Tool, a system built on the ONNX framework that streamlines quantization workflows for deep learning models. It offers layer‑wise sensitivity analysis, visualizations of weight and activation distributions, and guidance for selecting precision levels to balance model size, latency, and accuracy. Experiments on various neural network architectures show that the tool improves quantized accuracy and overall deployment efficiency.
