contents Modern edge applications increasingly require multi-DNN inference systems to execute tasks on heterogeneous processors, gaining performance from both concurrent execution and from matching each model to the most suited accelerator. However, existing systems support only a single model (or a few sparse variants) per task, which impedes the efficiency of this matching and results in high Service Level Objective violation rates. We introduce model stitching for multi-DNN inference systems, which creates model variants by recombining subgraphs from sparse models without re-training. We present a demonstrator system, SparseLoom, that shows model stitching can be deployed to SoCs. We show experimentally that SparseLoom reduces SLO violation rates by up to 74%, improves throughput by up to 2.31x, and lowers memory overhead by an average of 28% compared to state-of-the-art multi-DNN inference systems.
