Abstract Deep neural networks (DNNs) are used in the environments with restricted resources. However, it is still generating many technical problems with memory, energy and computational constraints. This paper examines current developments in how to make deep learning models perform better with edge computing. The paper examines fundamental techniques such model trimming, quantization, knowledge distillation, and lightweight structure construction to simplify models while maintaining their correctness. Additionally discussed are ways to employ co-design methodologies and hardware-aware planning approaches to ensure model structures match the capabilities of edge hardware. The assessment also examines novel concepts such shared learning, TinyML, and edge-cloud teaming. According to the research, peripheral artificial intelligence must make trade-offs in several areas as it grows. It must strike a balance, for instance, between energy efficiency and working speed or between precision and delay. It also reveals how well systems of multi-objective planning handle these issues. Important elements influencing the path of edge intelligence are long-term application, real-time adaptability, and dynamic reasoning. Finally, the assessment highlights many issues still needing additional research including hardware separation, security flaws in networked systems, and the need of ongoing device learning. It calls for consistent toolchains and well-known standards that enable the responsible, flexible, and safe use of deep learning models on edge devices at last. Researchers and professionals should use this set of materials to create AI systems that are efficient, adaptable, privacy conscious, self-driving, real-world capable.
