A Comparative Analysis on the Performance of Upper Confidence Bound Algorithms in Adaptive Deep Neural Networks

arXiv:2604.24810v2 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Edge computing environments impose strict constraints on energy consumption and latency, making the deployment of deep neural networks a significant challenge. Therefore, smart and adaptive inference strategies that dynamically balance computational cost or latency with predictive accuracy are critical in edge computing scenarios. In this work, we build on Adaptive Deep Neural Networks (ADNNs) that employ the Multi-Armed Bandit (MAB) framework. C
