Abstract
Hand tuning convolutional neural networks (CNN) for performance optimization can be tedious. A novel approach using a genetic algorithm to automate CNN hyper-parameter adjustment is proposed. This automated approach shows a 5% accuracy improvement over hand tuned methods and highly energy efficient networks on the Intel Movidius Compute Stick.
