Abstract

Purpose of the study is to improve efficiency of distributed transducer networks, which use models and methods of machine learning to analyze measures from sensors and perform reasoning on this measured data. The proposed model makes it possible to process data from different types of sensors to solve classification and regression problems. The model has hierarchical structure consisting of three-level calculators, which allows it to be used in the edge computing approach and to process data from different types of sensors, with varying measures dimensions and frequency of new data. To form the input tensor of a hierarchical neural network model, an algorithm for pre-processing and formatting input data from measures of different sensor types is proposed, considering the spatial and temporal characteristics of the obtained measurements. Also a method of neural networks compression based on hidden layers neurons pruning is proposed. Suggested method implements an unified approach to the compression of convolutional, recurrent and fully connected neural networks to solve classification and regression problems. The core mechanism of the proposed method is based on the dropout operation, which is used as a technique of neural network regularization. The method estimates rational probability of hidden layers neurons dropout on the basis of the neuron excessiveness parameter, which is estimated with the help of a special “trimmer” network. The proposed techniques could reduce time, memory and energy consumption for the neural network inference.
