This paper introduces FREDI, a framework for secure edge intelligence that optimizes resource allocation and inference for cooperative multi-layer systems. FREDI employs dual confidence thresholds for early-exit CNN screening by user equipment, with critical events offloaded to an edge server for detailed classification. The system aims to maximize utility through proportional-fair resource allocation and optimized inference thresholds, demonstrating near-perfect fairness and scalability in numerical results. AI
IMPACT This research could improve the efficiency and security of AI inference at the network edge, particularly for event-triggered applications.
