Hi Paul, thank you for your interest in Larq! MobileNets have been found to be hard to quantize below 8 bits. There is work on it (see for example Phan et. al., "Binarizing MobileNet via Evolution-based Searching", arXiv, 2020 ). However, for object detection with a BNN backbone, it might be easier to start with a network that was designed as a BNN in the first place. Here is an example from the community of a repository that uses QuickNet as a backbone. Residual/skip connections are definitely supported in larq/LCE - they are in fact quite important for getting BNNs to work. I hope this helps, feel free to ask follow up questions! |

Is there a binarized mobilenet SSD equivalent? Does it support residual/skip connection?
