Accelerating the inference of Convolution Neural Networks (CNNs) on edge devices is essential due to the small memory size and poor computation capability of these devices. Network quantization methods such as XNOR-Net, Bi-Real-Net, and XNOR-Net++ reduce the memory usage of CNNs by binarizing the CN...
