Title
Outliernets: Highly Compact Deep Autoencoder Network Architectures For On-Device Acoustic Anomaly Detection
Abstract
Human operators often diagnose industrial machinery via anomalous sounds. Given the new advances in the field of machine learning, automated acoustic anomaly detection can lead to reliable maintenance of machinery. However, deep learning-driven anomaly detection methods often require an extensive amount of computational resources prohibiting their deployment in factories. Here we explore a machine-driven design exploration strategy to create OutlierNets, a family of highly compact deep convolutional autoencoder network architectures featuring as few as 686 parameters, model sizes as small as 2.7 KB, and as low as 2.8 million FLOPs, with a detection accuracy matching or exceeding published architectures with as many as 4 million parameters. The architectures are deployed on an Intel Core i5 as well as a ARM Cortex A72 to assess performance on hardware that is likely to be used in industry. Experimental results on the model's latency show that the OutlierNet architectures can achieve as much as 30x lower latency than published networks.
