Very large-scale Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) have achieved remarkable successes in a large variety of computer vision tasks. However, the high computation intensity of DNNs makes it challenging to deploy these models on resource-limited systems. Some studies used low-rank approaches that approximate the filters by low-rank basis to accelerate the testing. Those works directly decomposed the pre-trained...
Synapse crossbar is an elementary structure in neuromorphic computing systems (NCS). However, the limited size of crossbars and heavy routing congestion impede the NCS implementation of large neural networks. In this paper, we propose a two-step framework (namely, group scissor) to scale NCS designs to large neural networks. The first step rank clipping integrates low-rank approximation into the training...
As the fourth basic circuit element, memristor has a unique synapse-alike feature which demonstrates great potentials in neuromorphic circuit design. However, a large gap exists between the theoretical memristor characteristics and the actual device behavior. For example, though the continuous changing in resistance state is expected in neuromorphic circuit design, it is difficult to maintain arbitrary...
Sparse matrix-vector multiplication (SpMV) is an important computational kernel in many applications. For performance improvement, software libraries designated for SpMV computation have been introduced, e.g., MKL library for CPUs and cuSPARSE library for GPUs. However, the computational throughput of these libraries is far below the peak floating-point performance offered by hardware platforms, because...
