Beam Search Optimizes Split Learning Latency on ESP32-S3

other · 2026-05-07

A new paper presents the first experimental latency benchmark of TinyML-based split learning on ESP32-S3 boards, comparing UDP, TCP, ESP-NOW, and BLE protocols. The study analyzes split point choices across MobileNet-V2 and ResNet50 to minimize end-to-end inference latency. A Beam Search-based algorithm for split point optimization is proposed and compared with Greedy Search and other methods.
