Training Neural Networks for Execution on Approximate Hardware

Approximate computing methods have shown great potential for deep learning. Due to the reduced hardware costs, these methods are especially suitable for inference tasks on battery-operated devices that are constrained by their power budget. However, approximate computing hasn’t reached its full potential due to the lack of work on training methods. In this work, we discuss training methods for approximate hardware. We demonstrate how training needs to be specialized for approximate hardware, and propose methods to speed up the training process by up to 18X.
