Energy Efficiency Considerations for Popular AI Benchmarks

Machine Learning 2023-04-18 v1 Artificial Intelligence Performance

Abstract

Advances in artificial intelligence need to become more resource-aware and sustainable. This requires clear assessment and reporting of energy efficiency trade-offs, like sacrificing fast running time for higher predictive performance. While first methods for investigating efficiency have been proposed, we still lack comprehensive results for popular methods and data sets. In this work, we attempt to fill this information gap by providing empiric insights for popular AI benchmarks, with a total of 100 experiments. Our findings are evidence of how different data sets all have their own efficiency landscape, and show that methods can be more or less likely to act efficiently.
