EDEN-UNet-CIFAR-100 — Baseline
Primary KPI: EAG (Energy-to-Accuracy Gradient) =
-2.0585e-09ΔAcc/ΔJoules
Abstract
This model is part of Project EDEN (Energy-Driven Evolution of Networks), implementing the E2AM (Energy Efficient Advanced Model) Framework. The goal is to shift AI benchmarking from pure accuracy to Green SOTA — maximizing predictive power per Joule consumed.
Applied Technique: Baseline – Standard Full Training (Reference Study)
Profiling Environment
| Component | Specification |
|---|---|
| GPU | NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti (11 GB VRAM, 250 W TDP) |
| CPU | Intel Xeon W-2125 (4 cores / 8 threads @ 4.00 GHz) |
| RAM | 63.66 GB System RAM |
| OS | Windows 10 |
| Dataset | CIFAR-100 — 60,000 images – 100 classes (32×32 px) |
🟢 Green Delta Table
Comparing this model against the reference baseline (ResNet-50 equivalent)
| Metric | ResNet50 Baseline | UNet (EDEN) | Δ |
|---|---|---|---|
| Accuracy | 0.9492 | 0.9963 | +4.71% |
| Total Energy (J) | 40,102,666 | 17,212,640 | 57.08% saved |
| CO₂ Emissions (kg) | 5.2913 | 2.2711 | — |
| EAG Score | — | -2.0585e-09 | ΔAcc/ΔJoules |
A positive EAG means this model learns more per Joule than the baseline. A negative EAG indicates a trade-off where higher accuracy required more energy investment.
E2AM Algorithm — Applied Phases
Standard full fine-tuning used as the Brute-Force Baseline for energy comparison. All layers trained from epoch 1 with a fixed learning rate and no gradient accumulation. Included for transparent EAG benchmarking.
