Abstract: An DNN accelerator may perform 1×N kernel decomposition to decompose a convolutional kernel into kernel vectors, each of which includes multiple weights. Through the kernel decomposition, a weight operand may be generated from a filter. The DNN accelerator converts an input tensor into input operands. An input operand includes activations and has the same size as the weight operand. The DNN accelerator may read a first activation in the input operand from memory to an internal memory of a first PE and read a second activation in the input operand from the memory to an internal memory of a second PE. The first PE may receive the second activation from the second PE through activation broadcasting between the two PEs and perform MAC operations on the input operand and weight operand. The second PE may perform MAC operations on another input operand in the input tensor and the weight operand.

The cells of the present invention can be derived from chosen donors whose HLA type is compatible with significant sectors of the populations, and are useful in a wide variety of applications, in particular in the context of the therapeutic treatment of neoplastic conditions.

Abstract: Hardware accelerator designs for neural networks are improved with various approaches to reduce circuit area, improve power consumption, and reduce starvation. Convolutional layers of a neural network may multiply a set of weights with a set of inputs. One example defers two's complement arithmetic from the parallelized multiplication circuits and completes the two's complement arithmetic when the results are accumulated. In another example, a multiplication circuit initially multiplies an input by an initial value of the maximum (or minimum) multiplication range before applying the magnitude of a multiplication encoded relative to the multiplication range. In another example, after dimensional reduction earlier in the network hardware, circuitry for a convolutional layer uses a reduced number of convolutional block circuits that are reused across a plurality of clock cycles to apply different subsets of weight channels.
