LiteCNNPro Model - Pure C++ Inference

Ultra-lightweight CNN model for dog breed classification

Model Details

Model: LiteCNNPro (Pure C++ implementation)
Parameters: 600K
Classes: 120 (Stanford Dogs dataset)
Input: 224×224 RGB images
Framework: PyTorch (training) → Pure C++ (inference)
Memory: 26MB total (4MB weights + 22MB runtime)

Architecture

Stem: Conv2D(3→32) + BatchNorm + ReLU6
Features: 7× Depthwise Separable Conv blocks
  - Block 0: 32→64 (stride 2)
  - Block 1: 64→128 (stride 2)
  - Block 2-3: 128→256 (stride 2)
  - Block 4-6: 256→512
  - SE (Squeeze-Excitation) attention in each block
Classifier: AdaptiveAvgPool → FC(512→256) → FC(256→120)
