From server to smartphone, devices with less processing speed and memory require smaller networks. Instead of building and training separate models to run on a variety of hardware, a new approach trains a single network that can be adapted to any device.

Neural networks can spill their secrets to those who know how to ask. A new approach secures them from prying eyes. Researchers demonstrate that that adversaries can find out a model’s parameter values by measuring its power use.

As neural networks have become more accurate, they’ve also ballooned in size and computational cost. That makes many state-of-the-art models impractical to run on phones and potentially smaller, less powerful devices.
