Neural networks can be costly in terms of memory and execution time. Reducing their cost has become an objective, especially when integrated in an embedded system with limited resources. A possible solution consists in reducing the precision of their neurons parameters. In this article, we present how to use auto-tuning on neural networks to lower their precision while keeping an accurate output. To do so, we use a floating-point auto-tuning tool on different kinds of neural networks. We show that, to some extent, we can lower the precision of several neural network parameters without compromising the accuracy requirement.
