New TAPAS strategy optimizes autonomous system perception for energy efficiency

Researchers have developed TAPAS, a novel throughput-adaptive perception strategy designed for autonomous systems operating on mobile and edge platforms. This system intelligently adjusts resource allocation in real-time based on varying scene complexity, aiming to optimize energy consumption while maintaining performance. TAPAS utilizes reinforcement learning with a gated recurrent unit agent to dynamically map perception tasks across heterogeneous hardware, demonstrating significant energy savings and robust throughput met rates on datasets like KITTI and nuScenes. AI

IMPACT Optimizes energy efficiency and performance for autonomous systems, potentially enabling longer operational times and wider deployment on edge devices.

    TAPAS: Throughput-adaptive Perception for Autonomous Systems

    arXiv:2607.17317v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Autonomous systems rely on a perception module to navigate through dynamic environments. In real-world scenarios, the perception module's throughput requirements vary at runtime due to changes in scene complexity. However, existin…
