Abstract:

Recent years have witnessed deep neural networks (DNNs) become the de facto tool in many applications such as image classification and speech recognition. But significant unmet needs remain in performing DNN inference tasks on mobile devices. Although edge computing enables complex DNN inference tasks to be performed in close proximity to the mobile device, performance optimization requires a carefully designed synergy between the edge and the mobile device. Moreover, the confidentiality of uploaded data to the possibly untrusted edge server is of great concern. In this paper, we investigate the impact of DNN partitioning on the inference latency performance and the privacy risks in edge computing. Based on the obtained insights, we design an offloading strategy that adaptively partitions the DNN in varying network environments to make the optimal tradeoff between performance and privacy for battery-powered mobile devices. This strategy is designed under the learning-aided Lyapunov optimization framework and has a provable performance guarantee. Finally, we build a small- scale testbed to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed offloading scheme.
