Optimizing User Experience in Wearable Cognitive Assistance through Model Specialization
Chanh Le Tan Nguyen, Mahadev Satyanarayanan · 2023
Wearable Cognitive Assistance (WCA) is a rapidly evolving application that relies on accurate computer vision models for optimal performance and user experience. However, adapting these models to varying user workstation backgrounds can be challenging, as it often necessitates extensive data collection and model retraining. To address this challenge, we propose an approach that focuses on improving model specialization to enhance the accuracy of model inference. Our method eliminates the need to gather the entire training dataset from each individual end user. This not only reduces labor-intensive work but also minimizes bandwidth requirements for transferring data to remote servers for training.
