  • Publication number: 20250005365
    Abstract: According to implementations of the subject matter described herein, a solution for neural network inference based on table lookup is provided. According to this solution, respective centroids in a first plurality of codebooks for a first layer of a neural network are determined along with a first weight matrix through a training procedure of the neural network. A first input for the first layer is divided into a first plurality of input sub-vectors, and target centroids are determined for the input sub-vectors based on respective distances between the input sub-vectors and the centroids. Target computation results of the target centroids with the first weight matrix are selected from a lookup table. A first output for the first layer is determined based on aggregation of the target computation results. In this way, better model accuracy can be achieved while leveraging the computation acceleration in table lookup-based model inference.

  • Publication number: 20240403618
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure include techniques processing dynamically sparse neural networks as dense computations. A permutation is performed to translate an input tensor from a sparse format into a dense format. Once in a dense format, dense computation can be performed to generate output data that is also in the dense format. A reverse permutation may then be performed to translate the output data back into the sparse format. An analysis of the operator is performed prior to runtime to determine the one or more dimensions of the tensor expression associated with the operator that are permutation invariant. The permutation may permutate the input tensor across dimensions that are permutation invariant.
