Neural Architecture Codesign for Fast Bragg Peak Analysis

원문 초록

We develop an automated pipeline to streamline neural architecture codesign for fast, real-time Bragg peak analysis in high-energy diffraction microscopy. Traditional approaches, notably pseudo-Voigt fitting, demand significant computational resources, prompting interest in deep learning models for more efficient solutions. Our method employs neural architecture search and AutoML to enhance these models, including hardware costs, leading to the discovery of more hardware-efficient neural architectures. Our results match the performance, while achieving a 13$\times$ reduction in bit operations compared to the previous state-of-the-art. We show further speedup through model compression techniques such as quantization-aware-training and neural network pruning. Additionally, our hierarchical search space provides greater flexibility in optimization, which can easily extend to other tasks and domains.
