Abstract: Machine learning models can generate outputs such as salient object detection. However, top-performing large-scale models have high computational cost, making the models hard to deploy on resource-constrained devices and to make predictions in real time. A difference convolution reparameterization technique can be used to fuse the sets of parameters learned during training time into a single set of parameters to be used at inference time or at deployment. The technique can increase performance without adding a lot of parameters. Furthermore, an efficient and effective spatial temporal difference convolution block can be used to leverage temporal information to make predictions. The spatial temporal difference convolution block can also apply the difference convolution reparameterization technique to reduce the need to increase parameters to achieve desired performance.
