EDEN-InceptionV3-CIFAR-100 — Baseline

Primary KPI: EAG (Energy-to-Accuracy Gradient) = 3.7665e-10 ΔAcc/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 — maximising 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	InceptionV3 (EDEN)	Δ
Accuracy	0.9492	0.9543	+0.51%
Total Energy (J)	40,102,666	53,696,285	-33.90% saved
CO₂ Emissions (kg)	5.2913	7.0849	—
EAG Score	—	3.7665e-10	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.
