In the dynamic landscape of artificial intelligence (AI), determining whether to adopt edge or cloud computing for AI applications has become critical. Traditionally, cloud computing was the go-to for scalability and unlimited computing capacity, but with advancements in systems on chips and the emergence of new software frameworks such as Tiny Machine Learning (TinyML), a new era is dawning.

Edge Computing, through decentralized computation, redefines AI by processing data closer to its source, minimizing latency, and enabling real-time decision-making.  This approach not only meets the demand for speed and efficiency but also establishes a robust foundation for security and privacy.

Is Edge AI poised to surpass traditional cloud-based deep learning? Our white paper “Computing Everything, Computing Everywhere. Re-discovering the Frontier of Edge AI” dives into this hotly debated topic, analyzing the reasons behind the rise of edge computing, and the pivotal role of TinyML in empowering AI on ultra-low-power devices.

What you’ll uncover:

• Advantages of edge AI, from increased device autonomy to bandwidth optimization and enhanced data privacy.
• The evolving ecosystem of Machine and Deep Learning frameworks adapting to the demand for edge-level deployments of ML models.
• The groundbreaking role of TinyML, enabling AI on low power devices with benefits like low latency processing and independence from connectivity.
• Strategies like Approximate Deep Learning with precision scaling and task dropping, quantization, and network pruning for optimal performance in constrained environments.
• SECO’s approach to the challenge of Edge AI – standardized, AI-optimized hardware and software architectures for edge computing with no technological lock-in.
