# E2AM-ResNet50 — Model Card

Energy-aware ResNet-50 from scratch on CIFAR-10.

## Architecture

- ResNet-50 (`torchvision.models.resnet50(weights=None)`)
- CIFAR adaptation: `conv1` -> 3x3 stride-1, `maxpool` -> Identity
- Input: 32x32 RGB, CIFAR-10 normalization stats
- Trained from scratch (no pretrained weights, no transfer)

## Training environment

- Platform: Kaggle Dual-T4 notebook (single T4 used for training)
- Energy: nvidia-smi power.draw at 1 Hz, trapezoidal integration
- Carbon: `CO2_kg = (E_J / 3.6e6) * intensity`

## Limitations

- Energy is integrated from per-GPU `nvidia-smi` power samples; CPU energy is
  not measured. Numbers reflect GPU-only training energy.
- Pruning (D1/D2) is mask-based structured pruning — weights are zeroed but
  the dense layout is preserved. Real wall-clock speed-ups need a sparsity-
  aware runtime; reported numbers reflect masked weights.
- INT8 (D3/D4) uses CPU FX static quantization (`fbgemm`); GPU INT8 via
  TensorRT is out of scope.
- ResNet-50 with the small-image stem (conv1 3x3 stride-1, maxpool=Identity).
  Used for CIFAR-10 (32x32) and Tiny-ImageNet-200 (64x64). For ImageNet (224x224)
  the standard 7x7 stride-2 conv1 + maxpool would be needed instead.
- Single T4 by design — DataParallel was measured slower at this scale.
