The hierarchy of hardware components includes a plurality of enclaves of tiles. Each tile includes memory and a processing element to perform operations on the decomposed coefficients stored in the memory of the tile. Each of the hardware components includes a controller to process the commands in the DAG generated for the hardware components. The DAGs are provided to a hierarchical DAG tracker to generate commands for the NMP device.

Abstract: Provided are a device, system, and computer program product for a near memory processing device to process coefficient elements resulting from decomposition of polynomials. A near memory processing device includes a plurality of enclaves and a plurality of interconnected tiles on each enclave. Coefficients of a polynomial are decomposed into a number of levels of the coefficient elements. Each level of coefficient elements comprises a limb. A device control receives hierarchical commands, from an application, that map operations to perform on limbs of coefficient elements to the enclaves and that map operations for the enclaves to the tiles in the enclaves. The device controller distributes operations for the tiles in the hierarchical commands to perform on the coefficient elements to the enclaves to distribute operations to perform on the coefficient elements to the tiles.

The training includes inputting training data into the first machine learning model such that, in response, the first machine learning model produces transformed training data; inputting the transformed training data into a clean machine learning model and into perturbed machine learning models, the perturbed machine learning models being generated by applying random bit errors to the clean machine learning model; and optimizing the first machine learning model based on a comparison of output of the clean machine learning model and of the perturbed machine learning models compared to groundtruth labels for the training data.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computer system for segmenting camera images obtained by a digital camera and analyzing the segments by a machine learning model (MLM). A first and second digital image of a scene obtained by a digital camera and a depth sensor, respectively, are received. The first and second digital images are characterized by a first and second pixel configuration, respectively. Using the second digital image, a binary mask characterized by the second pixel configuration is generated, including selectively digitizing each pixel of the binary mask to 1 or 0 to identify one or more regions of the scene to be subsequently segmented from the first digital image. By applying the binary mask to the first digital image, segments of the first digital image are generated. Each generated segment corresponds to a subset of the pixels of the binary mask that are digitized to 1.

Abstract: In a first device, a local classification and a local classification confidence score corresponding to an event input are computed. At the first device in response to a broadcast request, a remote classification and a remote classification confidence score corresponding to the event input are received, the remote classification and the remote classification confidence score being computed at a second device. At the first device, a consensus classification including the most frequent classification from a set of all received remote classifications and the local classification is formed, provided the number of classifications including the most frequent classification exceeds a threshold. In response to a consensus classification confidence score corresponding to the consensus classification exceeding a confidence threshold, a local classification model is updated. Based on the local classification and the consensus classification, the event input is assigned to a classification.

Abstract: Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for detecting anomalous activity in a system-on-chip. Counter values are determined from counters for processing elements in the system-on-chip during a test workload. A counter for one of the processing elements indicates an amount of activity at a processing element during a measurement period. An anomaly detector is trained to classify the determined counter values during measurement periods occurring during the test workload as non-anomalous activity. The trained anomaly detector is deployed within the system-on-chip to process counter values in the counters for the processing elements on the system-on-chip to classify the counter values as anomalous or non-anomalous. A mitigation action is performed in response to the deployed trained anomaly detector detecting the anomalous activity within the system-on-chip.

From a homomorphically encrypted intermediate result input to the server-side portion, a homomorphically encrypted output of the trained neural network is computed, the homomorphically encrypted intermediate result comprising a homomorphically encrypted output computed by the client-side portion.

Abstract: A system includes a determination component that determines output for successively larger neural networks of a set; and a consensus component that determines consensus between a first neural network and a second neural network of the set. A linear chain of increasingly complex neural networks trained on progressively larger inputs is utilized (e.g., increasingly complex neural networks is generally representative of increased accuracy). Outputs of progressively networks are computed until a consensus point is reached—where two or more successive large networks yield a same inference output. At such point of consensus the larger neural network of the set reaching consensus can be deemed appropriately sized (or of sufficient complexity) for a classification task at hand.

Abstract: Second machine learning models trained using respective second data sets can be received. The second machine learning models can be run using a first data set used in training a first machine learning model, where the second machine learning models produce respective outputs. Scores associated with the second machine learning models can be determined by comparing the respective outputs with ground truth associated with the first data set. Based on the scores associated with the second machine learning models, whether the first data set is to be discarded or kept can be determined for training the first machine learning model.
