Deep neural networks, such as the deep-FSMN, have been widely studied for keyword spotting (KWS) applications while suffering expensive computation and storage. Therefore, network compression technologies such as binarization are studied to deploy KWS models on edge. In this article, we present a strong yet efficient binary neural network for KWS, namely, BiFSMNv2, pushing it to the real-network accuracy performance. First, we present a dual-scale thinnable 1-bit-architecture (DTA) to recover the representation capability of the binarized computation units by dual-scale activation binarization and liberate the speedup potential from an overall architecture perspective. Second, we also construct a frequency-independent distillation (FID) scheme for KWS binarization-aware training, which distills the high-and low-frequency components independently to mitigate the information mismatch between full-precision and binarized representations. Moreover, we propose the learning propagation binarizer (LPB), a general and efficient binarizer that enables the forward and backward propagation of binary KWS networks to be continuously improved through learning. We implement and deploy BiFSMNv2 on ARMv8 real-world hardware with a novel fast bitwise computation kernel (FBCK), which is proposed to fully use registers and increase instruction throughput. Comprehensive experiments show our BiFSMNv2 outperforms the existing binary networks for KWS by convincing margins across different datasets and achieves comparable accuracy with the full-precision networks (only a tiny 1.51% drop on Speech Commands V1-12). We highlight that benefiting from the compact architecture and optimized hardware kernel, BiFSMNv2 can achieve an impressive 25.1 × speedup and 20.2 × storage-saving on edge hardware.
