Abstract
Data is input to one of a plurality of neural networks. Each of the plurality of neural networks is to be of a different size. A propagation time is determined for the inputted data. The propagation time relates to a time for the inputted data to propagate through one of the plurality of neural networks. One of the plurality of neural networks is selected based on the propagation time.
Claims20
A device, comprising:
- an input unit that provides input data to one of a plurality of neural networks, each of the plurality of neural networks to be of a different size;
- a propagation unit that determines a propagation time for the input data, the propagation time to relate to a time for the input data to propagate through one of the plurality of neural networks;
- and
- a select unit that selects the one of the plurality of neural networks based on a comparison of the propagation time to a second time that comprises an amount of time used to transcribe the input data after the input data has propagated through the one of the plurality of neural networks.

A method, comprising:
- providing input data to one of a plurality of neural networks, each of the plurality of neural networks being a different size;
- measuring a propagation time for the input data that has propagated through one of the plurality of neural networks;
- determining a second time related to an amount of time used to transcribe the input data after the input data has propagated through the one of the plurality of neural networks;
- calculating a ratio based on the propagation time and the second time;
- and
- selecting the one of the plurality of neural networks based on a comparison of the calculated ratio to a target value.
3 more elements
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, if executed by a processor of a device, cause the processor to:
- measure a propagation time for data to propagate through one of a plurality of neural networks, where each of the plurality of neural networks is a different size;
- determine a second time that comprises an amount of time used to transcribe the data after the data has propagated through one of the plurality of neural networks;
- and
- select the one of the plurality of neural networks based on the propagation time and the second time.
