| contents | The rapid advancement of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies has led to an increasing deployment of AI models on edge and terminal devices, driven by the proliferation of the Internet of Things (IoT) and the need for real-time data processing. This survey comprehensively explores the current state, technical challenges, and future trends of on-device AI models. We define on-device AI models as those designed to perform local data processing and inference, emphasizing their characteristics such as real-time performance, resource constraints, and enhanced data privacy. The survey is structured around key themes, including the fundamental concepts of AI models, application scenarios across various domains, and the technical challenges faced in edge environments. We also discuss optimization and implementation strategies, such as data preprocessing, model compression, and hardware acceleration, which are essential for effective deployment. Furthermore, we examine the impact of emerging technologies, including edge computing and foundation models, on the evolution of on-device AI models. By providing a structured overview of the challenges, solutions, and future directions, this survey aims to facilitate further research and application of on-device AI, ultimately contributing to the advancement of intelligent systems in everyday life. |
