<span style="background:white">M.S. Paper Title: Memory Planning for Deep Neural Networks</span><br>
<br>
<span style="background:white">Abstract: Deep neural networks (DNNs) are becoming increasingly memory intensive.</span><br>
<span style="background:white">We study memory allocation patterns in DNNs and propose a â€śmemorization" based technique, \texttt{MemoMalloc}, for optimizing both memory usage and inference latency.</span><br>
<span style="background:white">Specifically, we use static memory planning techniques to reduce both peak memory consumption and heap mutex contention.</span><br>
<span style="background:white">We present an implementation of MemoMalloc and evaluate memory consumption and execution performance on a wide range of DNN architectures. MemoMalloc substantially outperforms state-of-the-art caching allocators in terms of execution
 performance, by as much as 40%.</span><br>
