EDGE PROCESSING OF SENSOR DATA USING A NEURAL NETWORK TO REDUCE DATA TRAFFIC ON A COMMUNICATION NETWORK

摘要

Methods, systems, and apparatuses related to edge processing of sensor data using a neural network to reduce network traffic to and/or from a server. In one approach, a cloud server processes sensor data from a vehicle using an artificial neural network (ANN). The ANN has several layers. Based on analyzing at least one characteristic of the sensor data received from the vehicle and/or a context associated with processing the sensor data, the cloud server determines to send one or more of the layers of the ANN for edge processing on the vehicle itself. In other cases, the cloud server decides to send the one or more layers to an edge server device located on a communication path between the vehicle and the cloud server. The edge processing reduces network data traffic.
