laip
lAIP is an acronym used in discussions of edge AI and real-time systems. In many contexts it stands for low-latency artificial intelligence processing, describing approaches to run AI inference within tight time constraints on devices with limited compute and energy budgets. There is no single formal specification for lAIP, and its exact meaning can vary by project or vendor; it generally emphasizes predictable, fast responses.
Techniques include model compression (quantization, pruning), efficient architectures for mobile and embedded deployment, and runtime optimizations
Architectures typically feature on-device inference in smartphones, wearables, and sensors; edge devices performing initial processing; and
Applications span robotics, autonomous drones, industrial automation, smart cameras, and consumer devices that require quick responses
Standards and implementations: there is no widely adopted standard for lAIP. The term is used descriptively
Challenges include balancing accuracy with latency and energy use, ensuring reliable performance under varying conditions, and
