MicroViTv2: Beyond the FLOPS for Edge Energy-Friendly Vision Transformers

The Vision Transformer (ViT) achieves remarkable accuracy across visual tasks but remains computationally expensive for edge deployment. This paper presents MicroViTv2, a lightweight Vision Transformer optimized for real-device efficiency. Built upon the original MicroViT, the proposed model is designed based on reparameterized design, specifically Reparameterized Patch Embedding (RepEmbed) and Reparameterized Depth-Wise convolution mixer (RepDW) for faster inference, and introduces the Single Depth-Wise Transposed Attention (SDTA) to capture long-range dependencies with minimal redundancy. Despite slightly higher FLOPs, MicroViTv2 improves accuracy up to 0.5% compared to its predecessor and surpassing MobileViTv2, EdgeNeXt, and EfficientViT while maintaining fast inference and high energy efficiency on Jetson AGX Orin. Experiments on ImageNet-1K and COCO demonstrate that hardware-aware design and structural re-parameterization are key to achieving high accuracy and low energy consumption, validating the need to evaluate efficiency beyond FLOPs. Code is available at https://github.com/novendrastywn/MicroViT.

Scale-Aware Crowd Counting Using a Joint Likelihood Density Map and Synthetic Fusion Pyramid Network

We develop a Synthetic Fusion Pyramid Network (SPF-Net) with a scale-aware loss function design for accurate crowd counting. Existing crowd-counting methods assume that the training annotation points were accurate and thus ignore the fact that noisy annotations can lead to large model-learning bias and counting error, especially for counting highly dense crowds that appear far away. To the best of our knowledge, this work is the first to properly handle such noise at multiple scales in end-to-end loss design and thus push the crowd counting state-of-the-art. We model the noise of crowd annotation points as a Gaussian and derive the crowd probability density map from the input image. We then approximate the joint distribution of crowd density maps with the full covariance of multiple scales and derive a low-rank approximation for tractability and efficient implementation. The derived scale-aware loss function is used to train the SPF-Net. We show that it outperforms various loss functions on four public datasets: UCF-QNRF, UCF CC 50, NWPU and ShanghaiTech A-B datasets. The proposed SPF-Net can accurately predict the locations of people in the crowd, despite training on noisy training annotations.

Cooperative Reinforcement Learning on Traffic Signal Control

Traffic signal control is a challenging real-world problem aiming to minimize overall travel time by coordinating vehicle movements at road intersections. Existing traffic signal control systems in use still rely heavily on oversimplified information and rule-based methods. Specifically, the periodicity of green/red light alternations can be considered as a prior for better planning of each agent in policy optimization. To better learn such adaptive and predictive priors, traditional RL-based methods can only return a fixed length from predefined action pool with only local agents. If there is no cooperation between these agents, some agents often make conflicts to other agents and thus decrease the whole throughput. This paper proposes a cooperative, multi-objective architecture with age-decaying weights to better estimate multiple reward terms for traffic signal control optimization, which termed COoperative Multi-Objective Multi-Agent Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient (COMMA-DDPG). Two types of agents running to maximize rewards of different goals - one for local traffic optimization at each intersection and the other for global traffic waiting time optimization. The global agent is used to guide the local agents as a means for aiding faster learning but not used in the inference phase. We also provide an analysis of solution existence together with convergence proof for the proposed RL optimization. Evaluation is performed using real-world traffic data collected using traffic cameras from an Asian country. Our method can effectively reduce the total delayed time by 60\%. Results demonstrate its superiority when compared to SoTA methods.

MS-DARTS: Mean-Shift Based Differentiable Architecture Search

Differentiable Architecture Search (DARTS) is an effective continuous relaxation-based network architecture search (NAS) method with low search cost. It has attracted significant attentions in Auto-ML research and becomes one of the most useful paradigms in NAS. Although DARTS can produce superior efficiency over traditional NAS approaches with better control of complex parameters, oftentimes it suffers from stabilization issues in producing deteriorating architectures when discretizing the continuous architecture. We observed considerable loss of validity causing dramatic decline in performance at this final discretization step of DARTS. To address this issue, we propose a Mean-Shift based DARTS (MS-DARTS) to improve stability based on sampling and perturbation. Our approach can improve bot the stability and accuracy of DARTS, by smoothing the loss landscape and sampling architecture parameters within a suitable bandwidth. We investigate the convergence of our mean-shift approach, together with the effects of bandwidth selection that affects stability and accuracy. Evaluations performed on CIFAR-10, CIFAR-100, and ImageNet show that MS-DARTS archives higher performance over other state-of-the-art NAS methods with reduced search cost.

SFPN: Synthetic FPN for Object Detection

FPN (Feature Pyramid Network) has become a basic component of most SoTA one stage object detectors. Many previous studies have repeatedly proved that FPN can caputre better multi-scale feature maps to more precisely describe objects if they are with different sizes. However, for most backbones such VGG, ResNet, or DenseNet, the feature maps at each layer are downsized to their quarters due to the pooling operation or convolutions with stride 2. The gap of down-scaling-by-2 is large and makes its FPN not fuse the features smoothly. This paper proposes a new SFPN (Synthetic Fusion Pyramid Network) arichtecture which creates various synthetic layers between layers of the original FPN to enhance the accuracy of light-weight CNN backones to extract objects' visual features more accurately. Finally, experiments prove the SFPN architecture outperforms either the large backbone VGG16, ResNet50 or light-weight backbones such as MobilenetV2 based on AP score.
