Title: Optimizing Data-Flow in Binary Neural Networks. Abstract: Binary Neural Networks (BNNs) can significantly accelerate the inference time of a neural network by replacing its expensive floating-point arithmetic with bit-wise operations. Most existing solutions, however, do not fully optimize data flow through the BNN layers, and intermediate conversions from 1 to 16/32 bits often further hinder efficiency. We propose a novel training scheme that can increase data flow and parallelism in the BNN pipeline; specifically, we introduce a clipping block that decreases the data-width from 32 bits to 8. Furthermore, we reduce the internal accumulator size of a binary layer, usually kept using 32-bit to prevent data overflow without losing accuracy. Additionally, we provide an optimization of the Batch Normalization layer that both reduces latency and simplifies deployment. Finally, we present an optimized implementation of the Binary Direct Convolution for ARM instruction sets. Our experiments show a consistent improvement of the inference speed (up to $1.77$ and $1.9 \times$ compared to two state-of-the-art BNNs frameworks) with no drop in accuracy for at least one full-precision model.
