TASTE: Throughput-Aware Batch Size Tuning for On-Device Edge Learning

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper presents TASTE, a method that uses Bayesian optimization to tune batch size for on‑device edge learning, aiming to maximize hardware throughput while preserving accuracy. Experiments on devices like the Raspberry Pi 4 show that the tuned batch size, combined with gradient accumulation and linear learning‑rate scaling, can double training throughput compared to using the maximum batch size. In online continual learning, the optimal batch size also helps balance stability and plasticity, reducing catastrophic forgetting without sacrificing efficiency.

Parameter Efficient Continual Learning for Sparse Event-Based Transformers

The paper introduces sLoTh, a parameter‑efficient continual learning framework for sparse event‑based vision transformers. By freezing the backbone and limiting plasticity to low‑rank attention updates (seLoRA) and shared neuronal threshold modulation, sLoTh adapts to new tasks while updating less than 1% of the parameters and avoiding replay buffers. Experiments on CIFAR‑100, Tiny‑ImageNet, ImageNet‑100, and ImageNet‑R show competitive rehearsal‑free performance across up to 100 tasks and achieve roughly 6.5× lower energy consumption than dense vision transformers.
