Abstract
Techniques for machine learning (ML) model adaptation via segment replacement and student-teacher training are described. A model optimizer determines that a ML model sought to be deployed to an edge device includes a source segment that is not supported by the edge device. The model optimizer identifies a replacement segment that is equivalent to the source segment, constructs an adapted ML model by swapping in the replacement segment for the source segment, and trains the adapted ML model, optionally from the source ML model using a student-teacher training procedure. The trained adapted ML model is then deployed to the edge device, where it can be successfully run with minimal (if any) degradation of performance compared to the original source ML model.
