Emoji prediction has been widely adopted in most mobile keyboards to improve the quality of user experience. Considering the energy limitations of smartphones, it is promising to consider deploying pre-trained prediction models on edge servers, with which smartphones can carry out emoji prediction in an online fashion. However, given a limited connection capacity, a key issue under such a scheme lies in how each smartphone should select a subset of models to achieve high-accuracy and real-time emoji prediction with energy efficiency (a.k.a. the model selection problem). Moreover, part of the system dynamics such as the accuracy and the latency of individual models are usually unknown a priori in practice, further complicating the problem. In this paper, with an effective integration of history-aware online learning and online control, we propose the first green edge intelligence scheme to solve the model selection problem for edge-assisted mobile keyboard emoji prediction. Our theoretical analysis and simulation results verify the effectiveness of our proposed scheme in achieving a sublinear regret bound and energy efficiency with high accuracy and low latency. © 2021 IEEE.
