  Abstract

In this paper, we propose the architecture and training method of a depth adjustable deep neural network that enables on-the-fly selection of different inference accuracy-efficiency trade-offs using a single trained model. The proposed depth adjustable network splits each residual stage into two parts: one part learns hierarchical representations, while the other refines the learned features using a self-distillation technique. This training strategy allows the model to jointly learn multiple embedded subnetworks of varying depths with at most twice the training time of a single network. The proposed depth adjustable model is applied to image classification and object detection tasks, demonstrating the ability to adjust the trade-off between accuracy and efficiency without sacrificing maximum accuracy
