MobileNet V1

Use case : `Image classification`

Model description

The original MobileNet architecture pioneered the use of depthwise separable convolutions for efficient mobile vision. It dramatically reduces computation and model size while maintaining competitive accuracy.

MobileNet factorizes standard convolutions into depthwise and pointwise operations, dramatically reducing computational cost. The architecture supports a width multiplier (Alpha) to scale channel dimensions (a025 = 0.25x, a050 = 0.5x, a075 = 0.75x), and uses linear bottleneck for efficient channel expansion and compression.

Resolution multipliers can further scale input resolution for additional efficiency, making MobileNet ideal for real-time mobile applications and resource-constrained embedded systems.

The model is quantized to int8 using ONNX Runtime and exported for efficient deployment.

Accuracy with Imagenet dataset

Dataset details: link Number of classes: 1000. To perform the quantization, we calibrated the activations with a random subset of the training set. For the sake of simplicity, the accuracy reported here was estimated on the 50000 labelled images of the validation set.
