FORGE is a forward‑only test‑time adaptation technique designed for integer‑only vision models running on microcontrollers. It restores batch‑normalization statistics after BN folding by re‑normalizing each convolution’s per‑channel output using only forward‑pass estimates, enabling adaptation on deployed, folded integer models. The method achieves accuracy gains comparable to gradient‑based TENT, requires adapting only a few layers, works with single‑sample streaming, and has been validated on an ESP32‑S3 with minimal energy and latency overhead.

Neural network pruning reduces model size by removing less important parameters while aiming to preserve predictive performance. Although the Lottery Ticket Hypothesis (LTH) shows that sparse subnetworks can match dense networks when trained from suitable initializations, its iterative pruning procedure requires multiple complete training cycles.
