|abstract=In Video Analytics Pipelines (VAP), Analytics Units (AUs) such as object detection and face recognition running on remote servers critically rely on surveillance cameras to capture high-quality video streams in order to achieve high accuracy. Modern IP cameras come with a large number of camera parameters that directly affect the quality of the video stream capture. While a few of such parameters, e.g., exposure, focus, white balance are automatically adjusted by the camera internally, the remaining ones are not. We denote such camera parameters as non-automated (NAUTO) parameters. In this paper, we first show that environmental condition changes can have significant adverse effect on the accuracy of insights from the AUs, but such adverse impact can potentially be mitigated by dynamically adjusting NAUTO camera parameters in response to changes in environmental conditions. We then present CamTuner, to our knowledge, the first framework that dynamically adapts NAUTO camera parameters to optimize the accuracy of AUs in a VAP in response to adverse changes in environmental conditions. CamTuner is based on SARSA reinforcement learning and it incorporates two novel components: a light-weight analytics quality estimator and a virtual camera that drastically speed up offline RL training. Our controlled experiments and real-world VAP deployment show that compared to a VAP using the default camera setting, CamTuner enhances VAP accuracy by detecting 15.9% additional persons and 2.6%--4.2% additional cars (without any false positives) in a large enterprise parking lot and 9.7% additional cars in a 5G smart traffic intersection scenario, which enables a new usecase of accurate and reliable automatic vehicle collision prediction (AVCP). CamTuner opens doors for new ways to significantly enhance video analytics accuracy beyond incremental improvements from refining deep-learning models.
|abstract=Continual learning (CL) trains NN models incrementally from a continuous stream of tasks. To remember previously learned knowledge, prior studies store old samples over a memory hierarchy and replay them when new tasks arrive. Edge devices that adopt CL to preserve data privacy are typically energy-sensitive and thus require high model accuracy while not compromising energy efficiency, i.e., cost-effectiveness. Our work is the first to explore the design space of hierarchical memory replay-based CL to gain insights into achieving cost-effectiveness on edge devices. We present Miro, a novel system runtime that carefully integrates our insights into the CL framework by enabling it to dynamically configure the CL system based on resource states for the best cost-effectiveness. To reach this goal, Miro also performs online profiling on parameters with clear accuracy-energy trade-offs and adapts to optimal values with low overhead. Extensive evaluations show that Miro significantly outperforms baseline systems we build for comparison, consistently achieving higher cost-effectiveness.

|abstract = To perform advanced surveillance, Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) require the execution of edge-assisted computer vision (CV) tasks. In multi-hop UAV networks, the successful transmission of these tasks to the edge is severely challenged due to severe bandwidth constraints. For this reason, we propose a novel A2-UAV framework to optimize the number of correctly executed tasks at the edge. In stark contrast with existing art, we take an application-aware approach and formulate a novel pplication-Aware Task Planning Problem (A2-TPP) that takes into account (i) the relationship between deep neural network (DNN) accuracy and image compression for the classes of interest based on the available dataset, (ii) the target positions, (iii) the current energy/position of the UAVs to optimize routing, data pre-processing and target assignment for each UAV. We demonstrate A2-TPP is NP-Hard and propose a polynomial-time algorithm to solve it efficiently. We extensively evaluate A2-UAV through real-world experiments with a testbed composed by four DJI Mavic Air 2 UAVs. We consider state-of-the-art image classification tasks with four different DNN models (i.e., DenseNet, ResNet152, ResNet50 and MobileNet-V2) and object detection tasks using YoloV4 trained on the ImageNet dataset. Results show that A2-UAV attains on average around 38% more accomplished tasks than the state-of-the-art, with 400% more accomplished tasks when the number of targets increases significantly. To allow full reproducibility, we pledge to share datasets and code with the research community.
|abstract=Multi-view 3D reconstruction driven augmented, virtual, and mixed reality applications are becoming increasingly edge-native, due to factors such as, rapid reconstruction needs, security/privacy concerns, and lack of connectivity to cloud platforms. Managing edge-native 3D reconstruction, due to edge resource constraints and inherent dynamism of ‘in the wild’ 3D environments, involves striking a balance between conflicting objectives of achieving rapid reconstruction and satisfying minimum quality requirements. In this paper, we take a deeper dive into multi-view 3D reconstruction latency-quality trade-off, with an emphasis on reconstruction of dynamic 3D scenes. We propose data-level and task-level parallelization of 3D reconstruction pipelines, holistic edge system optimizations to reduce reconstruction latency, and long-term minimum reconstruction quality satisfaction. The proposed solutions are validated through collection of real-world 3D scenes with varying degree of dynamism that are used to perform experiments on hardware edge testbed. The results show that our solutions can achieve between 50% to 75% latency reduction without violating long term minimum quality requirements.

  1. [MobiCom'23] Cost-effective On-device Continual Learning over Memory Hierarchy with Miro, Jiale
    Abstract: Continual learning (CL) trains NN models incrementally from a continuous stream of tasks. To remember previously learned knowledge, prior studies store old samples over a memory hierarchy and replay them when new tasks arrive. Edge devices that adopt CL to preserve data privacy are typically energy-sensitive and thus require high model accuracy while not compromising energy efficiency, i.e., cost-effectiveness. Our work is the first to explore the design space of hierarchical memory replay-based CL to gain insights into achieving cost-effectiveness on edge devices. We present Miro, a novel system runtime that carefully integrates our insights into the CL framework by enabling it to dynamically configure the CL system based on resource states for the best cost-effectiveness. To reach this goal, Miro also performs online profiling on parameters with clear accuracy-energy trade-offs and adapts to optimal values with low overhead. Extensive evaluations show that Miro significantly outperforms baseline systems we build for comparison, consistently achieving higher cost-effectiveness.

    Abstract: Multi-view 3D reconstruction driven augmented, virtual, and mixed reality applications are becoming increasingly edge-native, due to factors such as, rapid reconstruction needs, security/privacy concerns, and lack of connectivity to cloud platforms. Managing edge-native 3D reconstruction, due to edge resource constraints and inherent dynamism of ‘in the wild’ 3D environments, involves striking a balance between conflicting objectives of achieving rapid reconstruction and satisfying minimum quality requirements. In this paper, we take a deeper dive into multi-view 3D reconstruction latency-quality trade-off, with an emphasis on reconstruction of dynamic 3D scenes. We propose data-level and task-level parallelization of 3D reconstruction pipelines, holistic edge system optimizations to reduce reconstruction latency, and long-term minimum reconstruction quality satisfaction. The proposed solutions are validated through collection of real-world 3D scenes with varying degree of dynamism that are used to perform experiments on hardware edge testbed. The results show that our solutions can achieve between 50% to 75% latency reduction without violating long term minimum quality requirements.
