Abstract

The present disclosure describes systems and methods for implementing input-adaptive neural networks. Several approaches and systems are presented for creating flexible and computationally-efficient deep neural networks that adapt their complexity based upon input data such as video streams. The approach may use fine-grained design and an automatic approach for generating optimal network architectures based on early-exit mechanisms. A neural network modified according to such principles can be implemented in various devices including mobile vision systems such as smartphones, drones, and head-mounted augmented reality devices.
