I compared the performance of the original, Lite, quantized, and pruned models in terms of validation accuracy, inference time, and model size. For model size, I used gzip for all models.
My Questions:
Inference Time:
I observe that: Original model > Lite model = Pruned model > Quantized model
Question 1 : Why does the pruned model have the same inference time as the Lite model? I expect from pruned model to have less inference time than lite model.
Model Size:
I observe that: Original model = Lite model > Pruned model > Quantized model
Question 2: Why does the Lite model have the same size as the original model? I expect from it to be less than original one.
Update:
I installed TensorFlow Flex to support operations not natively supported by TensorFlow Lite. I have provided a minimal, non-working example to illustrate my second question about model size: Why does the Lite model have the same size as the original model? I expected it to be smaller than the original.
I am unsure how to resolve this issue. Interestingly, when I perform the same steps with a simple CNN model, it works perfectly (Lite is smaller than Original and the code works without error). However, it fails with this SqueezeNet example.
