Book excerpt: Tiny machine learning has enabled Internet of Things platforms to make intelligent inferences for time-critical and remote applications from unstructured data. However, realizing edge artificial intelligence systems that can perform long-term high-level reasoning and obey the underlying system physics, rules, and constraints within the tight platform resource budget is challenging. This dissertation explores how rich, robust, and intelligent inferences can be made on extremely resource-constrained platforms in a platform-aware and automated fashion. Firstly, we introduce a robust training pipeline that handles sampling rate variability, missing data, and misaligned data timestamps through intelligent data augmentation techniques during training time. We use a controlled jitter in window length and add artificial misalignments in data timestamps between sensors, along with masking representations of missing data. Secondly, we introduce TinyNS, a platform-aware neurosymbolic architecture search framework for the automatic co-optimization and deployment of neural operators and physics-based process models. TinyNS exploits fast, gradient-free, and black-box Bayesian optimization to automatically construct the most performant learning-enabled, physics, and context-aware edge artificial intelligence program from a search space containing neural and symbolic operators within the platform resource constraints. To guarantee deployability, TinyNS receives hardware metrics directly from the target hardware during the optimization process. Thirdly, we introduce the concept of neurosymbolic tiny machine learning, where we showcase recipes for defining the physics-aware tiny machine learning program synthesis search space from five neurosymbolic program categories. Neurosymbolic artificial intelligence combines the context awareness and integrity of symbolic techniques with the robustness and performance of machine learning models. We develop parsers to automatically write microcontroller code for neurosymbolic programs and showcase several previously unseen TinyML applications. These include onboard physics-aware neural-inertial navigation, on-device human activity recognition, on-chip fall detection, neural-Kalman filtering, and co-optimization of neural and symbolic processes. Finally, we showcase techniques to personalize and adapt tiny machine learning systems to the target domain and application. We illustrate the use of transfer learning, resource-efficient unsupervised template creation and matching, and foundation models as pathways to realize generalizable, domain-aware, and data-efficient edge artificial intelligence systems.
