Abstract
Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed to partition neural network models for executing at distributed Edge nodes. An example apparatus includes processor circuitry to perform at least one of first, second, or third operations to instantiate power consumption estimation circuitry to estimate a computation energy consumption for executing the neural network model on a first edge node, network bandwidth determination circuitry to determine a first transmission time for sending an intermediate result from the first edge node to a second or third edge node, power consumption estimation circuitry to estimate a transmission energy consumption for sending the intermediate result to the second or the third edge node, and neural network partitioning circuitry to partition the neural network model into a first portion to be executed at the first edge node and a second portion to be executed at the second or third edge node.
