Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for efficient parallel execution of multiple work units in a processor by reducing a number of memory accesses are disclosed. A computing system includes a processor core with a parallel data architecture. One or more of a software application and firmware implement matrix operations and support the broadcast of shared data to multiple compute units of the processor core. The application creates thread groups by matching compute kernels of the application with data items, and grouping the resulting work units into thread groups. The application assigns the thread groups to compute units based on detecting shared data among the compute units. Rather than send multiple read access to a memory subsystem for the shared data, a single access request is generated. The single access request includes information to identify the multiple compute units for receiving the shared data when broadcasted.

Abstract: A data processing circuit and a fault-mitigating method are provided. In the method, multiple sub-sequences are divided from sequence data. A first sub-sequence of the sub-sequences is accessed from a memory for a multiply-accumulate (MAC) operation to obtain a first computed result. The MAC operation is performed on a second sub-sequence of the sub-sequences in the memory to obtain a second computed result. The first and the second computed results are combined, where the combined result of the first and the second computed results is related to the result of the MAC operation on the sequence data directly. Accordingly, the error rate could be reduced, so as to mitigate fault.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for multimodal emotion classification based on modal space assimilation and contrastive learning. The present disclosure introduces the concept of assimilation. A guidance vector composed of complementary information between modalities is utilized to guide each modality to simultaneously approach a solution space. This operation not only further improves the efficiency of searching for the solution space but also renders heterogeneous spaces of three modalities isomorphic. In a process of making spaces isomorphic, contributions of a plurality of modalities to a final solution space can be effectively balanced to a certain extent. When guiding each modality, this strategy enables a model to be more concerned about emotion features, thereby reducing intra-modal redundancy. Thus, the difficulty of establishing a multimodal representation is reduced.
