AWhat changed
Introduced mobile and embedded vision networks built with depthwise-separable convolutions and size/latency trade-off controls.
Scientific scope
Introduced mobile and embedded vision networks built with depthwise-separable convolutions and size/latency trade-off controls. Scope limitation: The original MobileNet paper is not the invention of depthwise-separable convolutions and is distinct from later MobileNetV2/V3 architectures.
Evidence
The retained primary-source abstract, bibliographic record and stated review scope support this provisional assessment. No independent experimental replication by WRS is claimed. The original MobileNet paper is not the invention of depthwise-separable convolutions and is distinct from later MobileNetV2/V3 architectures.
