Call for Papers

AutoMLPerSys is focused on enhancing and nurturing research in the niche domain of AutoML for tiny edge systems like wearables/implantable and smart fabrics, that perform pervasive human sensing. We welcome full papers (up to 6 pages) with novel ideas on the automation of machine learning for pervasive sensing applications. Submissions can be in research areas including, but not limited to the following:

• AutoML for Human Sensing.

• Hyperparameter Optimization Techniques, Neural Architecture Search Techniques for resource-constrained platforms

• Methods and challenges in the implementation of AutoML-generated models on Wearable, Implantable, Smart Fabrics and Mobile Devices, including Connected Home and Connected Vehicle Edge Devices.

• Real-time parameters and their optimization and impact on on-device inference.

• Addressing issues related to devising Deployment and Inference, such as Data Quality, Resource Constraints, Interpretability, Feature Engineering, Privacy and Sustainability

• Addressing problems arising due to model parameter reduction, such as Robustness, Personalization and Generalizability, Reliability  and Scalability

• Application-specific deployment of AI on edge devices impacts the various user privacy and feasibility concerns and sustainability in short-term as well as long-term.

• The various challenges involved in making a model architecture fit for pervasive usage - whether the reduction in size and parameters results in a fair trade-off between resource demand and metrics (Accuracy, Robustness).

• The right balance between the cost of resources (Power, GPU hours, Memory usage) to automate the model design and reduction process vs. the benefits achieved in terms of tiny model architectures with low resource footprint for training and inference for continuously running applications.

• Energy consideration and Power budgeting for continuous Sensing and Inference.
