Hey Hash, I've been compiling some neural nets to predict intrusion patterns—thought we could compare notes on the best architecture for real‑time threat detection.
Hash Hash
Sounds like a good plan. For real‑time detection, I usually start with a lightweight CNN followed by an LSTM for temporal context, then a small fully‑connected layer for the final classification. Keep the model size below 10 MB if you’re deploying on edge devices. If latency is critical, consider quantizing to 8‑bit or using a MobileNet backbone. Let me know if you hit any bottlenecks.

Nice specs. I'll stick to a MobileNetV2 base and squeeze the LSTM to just two layers. If the 8‑bit quantization drops accuracy, I'll throw a few more convolutions in. Let me know if the edge device starts complaining about CPU cycles.
Hash Hash
If the CPU starts throttling, consider pruning the network or switching to a depthwise‑separable conv‑only approach. Keep an eye on the inference time per batch; 5 ms per inference is a good target on a 2 GHz core. If you hit the 1 % accuracy drop from quantization, look at bias‑adjustment or a tiny calibration dataset. Let me know how it turns out.

Thanks. I'm pruning to 80 % of weights and switching to depthwise‑separable convs now. Current batch latency is 5.3 ms, accuracy 99.4 % after bias tweak. If the 2 GHz core throttles, I'll drop the LSTM entirely and swap to a tiny Transformer block. Will ping you if something crosses the 1 % threshold.

Good to hear the pruning worked. Keep an eye on the memory bandwidth; sometimes depthwise layers hit that. If you drop the LSTM, just make sure the Transformer block still gets a positional encoding—otherwise the temporal pattern might get lost. Ping me when you hit that 1 % line.
Garnyx Garnyx
Got it, I'll monitor bandwidth and keep a positional encoder in the Transformer. Will buzz if the accuracy dips near that 1 % mark.
Hash Hash
Sounds solid. Just remember: if it drops, the first thing to check is the tokenization of the positional encoding. Let me know when you hit that threshold.
