  • Patent number: 11829376
    Abstract: Technologies for refining stochastic similarity search candidates include a device having a memory that is column addressable and circuitry connected to the memory. The circuitry is configured to add a set of input data vectors to the memory as a set of binary dimensionally expanded vectors, including multiplying each input data vector with a projection matrix. The circuitry is also configured to produce a search hash code from a search data vector, including multiplying the search data vector with the projection matrix. Additionally, the circuitry is configured to identify a result set of the binary dimensionally expanded vectors as a function of a Hamming distance of each binary dimensionally expanded vector from the search hash code and determine, from the result set, a refined result set as a function of a similarity measure in an original input space of the input data vectors.

  • Publication number: 20230305709
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture are disclosed to facilitate improved use of stochastic associative memory. Example instructions cause at least one processor to: generate a hash code for data to be stored in a stochastic associative memory (SAM); compare the hash code with centroids of clusters of data stored in the SAM; select a first one of the clusters corresponding to a first one of the centroids that is closest to the hash code; determine whether a selected number of hash codes stored in the SAM exceeds a threshold; in response to the selected number exceeding the threshold: query a controller for sizes of the clusters; and determine, based on the query, that a second one of the clusters includes an unbalanced size; and select a third one of the clusters to associate with a second number of hash codes corresponding to the second one of the clusters.

  • Patent number: 11640295
    Abstract: Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for technology that generates a dependence graph based on a plurality of intermediate representation (IR) code instructions associated with a compiled program code, generates a set of graph embedding vectors based on the plurality of IR code instructions, and determines, via a neural network, one of an analysis of the compiled program code or an enhancement of the program code based on the dependence graph and the set of graph embedding vectors. The technology may provide a graph attention neural network that includes a recurrent block and at least one task-specific neural network layer, the recurrent block including a graph attention layer and a transition function. The technology may also apply dynamic per-position recurrence-halting to determine a number of recurring steps for each position in the recurrent block based on adaptive computation time.

  • Patent number: 11500887
    Abstract: Technologies for tuning performance and/or accuracy of similarity search using stochastic associative memories (SAM). Under a first subsampling approach, columns associated with set bits in a search key comprising a binary bit vector are subsampled. Matching set bits for the subsampled columns are aggregated on a row-wise basis to generate similarity scores, which are then ranked. A similar scheme is applied for all the columns with set bits in the search key and the results for top ranked rows are compared to evaluate a tradeoff between throughput boost versus lost accuracy. A second approach called continuous column read, and iterative approach is employed that continuously scores the rows as each new column read is complete. The similarity scores for an N-1 and Nth-1 iteration are ranked, a rank correlation is calculated, and a determination is made to whether the rank correlation meets or exceeds a threshold.

  • Publication number: 20210318805
    Abstract: Binary sparse encoding of data can be used to reduce an amount of data read from the stochastic associative memory while processing a query. Read performance of the stochastic associated memory is optimized to enhance the query throughput by modifying access patterns to reduce the time to read the stochastic associated memory. Read performance of the stochastic associative memory can be further improved through the use of cluster aware sharding and replication for parallelized similarity search. Clusters are partitioned across multiple Dual In-line Memory Modules (DIMMs), each DIMM including stochastic associative memory, to achieve maximum latency advantage.

  • Patent number: 8751676
    Abstract: A network protocol unit interface is described that uses a message engine to transfer contents of received network protocol units in message segments to a destination message engine. The network protocol unit interface uses a message engine to receive messages whose content is to be transmitted in network protocol units. A message engine transmits message segments to a destination message engine without the message engine transmitter and receiver sharing memory space. In addition, the transmitter message engine can transmit message segments to a receiver message engine by use of a virtual address associated with the receiver message and a queue identifier, as opposed to a memory address.

  • Publication number: 20140122546
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes tuning for distributed data and storage and processing systems. A device may comprise a tuner module configured to determine a distributed data and storage and processing system configuration based at least on configuration information available in the device, and to adjust the distributed data and storage and processing system configuration based on a baseline configuration. The tuner module may be further configured to then determine sample information for the distributed data and storage and processing systems derived from actual distributed data and storage and processing system operation, and to use the sample information in creating a performance model of the distributed data and storage and processing system. The tuner module may be further configured to then evaluate configuration changes to the system based on the performance model, and to determine a recommended distributed data and storage and processing system configuration based on the evaluation.
