ONERT-MICRO 0.1.0

Release Notes for onert-micro 0.1.0

onert-micro is tiny runtime specialized for running NN model in MCU boards. Note that onert-micro is under active development and is subject to change.

Supported operations

For MCU board, we support 22 operations as follows :

ADD, FULLY_CONNECTED, CONV_2D, LOGISTIC ,GATHER, EXPAND_DIMS, PACK, RESHAPE, REDUCE_PROD, LESS, MUL, MAX_POOL_2D, CONCATENATION, SHAPE, SLICE, SUB, SPLIT, STRIDED_SLICE, TANH, SOFTMAX, WHILE, UNIDIRECTIONAL_SEQUENCE_LSTM

RNN Model

LSTM

onert-micro supports Keras model with LSTM operations. But, it should be converted to UNIDIRECTIONAL_SEQUENCE_LSTM operation in circle format.

GRU

onert-micro supports model with GRU Operations, which is converted from Keras Model. Please refer to #10465 to see GRU operation supported by onert-micro.

Benchmark

onert-micro shows better performance than tflite-micro especially in memory consumption, binary size.

The measurement is done on TizenRT running reference models on the development board with the following spec :

• 32-bit Arm Cortex-M33 200MHz
• 4MB RAM, 8MB Flash

Commit for measurement :

• tflite-micro commit: tensorflow/tflite-micro@4e62ea7

• onert-micro commit: c763867
