Description
MobileOne represents a significant advancement in the development of efficient neural network backbones specifically tailored for mobile devices. Traditional optimization metrics like FLOPs and parameter count often fail to accurately predict real-world latency on mobile hardware. Recognizing this discrepancy, the research behind MobileOne involved extensive analysis of various metrics by deploying multiple mobile-friendly networks directly onto mobile devices.

This analysis led to the identification and mitigation of architectural and optimization bottlenecks present in recent efficient neural network designs. The outcome is MobileOne, an efficient backbone architecture with variants capable of achieving inference times under 1 millisecond on an iPhone12, while simultaneously maintaining a high top-1 accuracy of 75.9% on the ImageNet dataset. MobileOne demonstrates state-of-the-art performance among efficient architectures, offering substantial speedups on mobile platforms – in some cases, up to 38 times faster than comparable models like MobileFormer while achieving similar accuracy.
Furthermore, MobileOne exhibits superior performance compared to established architectures like EfficientNet, delivering 2.3% better top-1 accuracy on ImageNet at a similar latency. A key strength of MobileOne is its versatility; it generalizes effectively across multiple computer vision tasks, including image classification, object detection, and semantic segmentation. When deployed on mobile devices, MobileOne consistently provides significant improvements in both latency and accuracy when benchmarked against existing efficient architectures, making it a powerful tool for on-device AI applications.
