  • Patent number: 11782498
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a coding module that determines whether a parameter of an artificial neural network is an outlier, depending on a value of the parameter and compresses the parameter by truncating a first bit of the parameter when the parameter is a non-outlier and truncating a second bit of the parameter when the parameter is the outlier, and a decoding module that decodes a compressed parameter.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: February 17, 2020
    Date of Patent: October 10, 2023
    Assignee: University-Industry Cooperation Group of Kyung Hee University
    Inventors: Ik Joon Chang, Ho Nguyen Dong, Minhson Le
  • Patent number: 11144386
    Abstract: A memory controller includes an error correction circuit that converts some bits of first data into parity bits for an error correction operation and generates second data including remaining bits of the first data and the parity bits replaced from the some bits, and a physical layer that transmits the second data instead of the first data to a memory device.

  • Patent number: 9462072
    Abstract: A data transmission method in an ad-hoc network includes: a determining step in which a data sink node determines information of a route from a source node to the data sink node and a kind of data collected by the source node; a selecting step in which the data sink node selects a target node to compress data from the source node and a relay node with respect to the source node to minimize estimated total energy consumption of the network and a kind of a compression algorithm to be used by the target node using the information of the route and the kind of data; an informing step in which the data sink node informs the target node of data compression information including the kind of a compression algorithm depending on the information of the route and the kind of data; and a compressing and transmitting step in which the target node compresses collected or received data according to the data compression information and transmits the data.

  • Publication number: 20130285696
    Abstract: An on-chip sensor measures dynamic power supply noise, such as voltage droop, on a semiconductor chip. In-situ logic is employed, which is sensitive to noise present on the power supply of functional logic of the chip. Exemplary functional logic includes a microprocessor, adder, and/or other functional logic of the chip. The in-situ logic performs some operation, and the amount of time required for performing that operation (i.e., the operational delay) is sensitive to noise present on the power supply. Thus, by evaluating the operational delay of the in-situ logic, the amount of noise present on the power supply can be measured.
