Lightweight Convolutional Neural Network Architecture for Mobile Platforms

Abstract

For the problem that the deep neural network has low accuracy and over-fitting on the mobile platforms,a lightweight Convolutional Neural Network(CNN) architecture is proposed.The 3×3 depthwise separable convolution replaces the standard 3×3 convolution kernel in the SqueezeNet network model basic module Fire,constructs the SparkNet network structure,and replaces the model convolution to obtain the network deformation structure.Experimental results show that compared with the SqueezeNet network structure,the architecture can improve the calculation speed of the network model,effectively reduce the network model size and reduce the number of parameters.
