Key paths

Path Role
bnn/vision/ CIFAR Bi-Real + tiny ViT + ImageNet stub
bnn/audio/ Features, synthetic data, classifiers
scripts/train_image.py Image train → results/image_cifar.*
scripts/train_audio.py Audio train → results/audio_synth.*

5-command verify

cd path\to\Binary-Neural-Networks
pytest tests\test_vision_smoke.py tests\test_audio_smoke.py -q
python scripts\train_audio.py --epochs 2 --n-train 128 --n-test 64
python scripts\train_image.py --epochs 1 --train-subset 512 --channels 32
bnn eval-suite --skip-pytest

Full quality image run (slower): bnn train-image --epochs 8 --subset 30000.

Thesis reminder

CPU/edge packed 1-bit Linear kernels are the speed story. Conv pack is size-first. GPU → INT4/FP8. Classic BNN ≠ production ASR.
