  • Patent number: 11487998
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a depth-first deep convolutional network (DCN) having a first convolutional layer having a first first-layer kernel and adapted to convolve a first input and a second convolutional layer having a first second-layer kernel and adapted to convolve a second-layer input. A method for the DCN includes initiating convolution in the first convolution layer of the first input tensor with the first first-layer kernel to generate a value strip for the second input tensor and, prior to completion of the convolution in the first convolution layer, initiating convolution in the second convolution layer of the second input with the first second-layer kernel to generate a value strip for a third layer.

  • Patent number: 9998143
    Abstract: A system for data decompression may include a processor coupled to a remote memory having a remote dictionary stored thereon and coupled to a decompression logic having a local memory with a local dictionary. The processor may decompress data during execution by accessing the local dictionary, and if necessary, the remote dictionary.

  • Patent number: 9300320
    Abstract: A multi-pass compression iteratively removes combinations of bits from locations in each word of a cache line of an uncompressed data stream. For each combination of removed bits, the remaining bits in the word values of the cache line are analyzed to generate a compression score. A highest compression score triggers the building of a dictionary from the remaining bits in the word values of the cache line. After a dictionary is built, the method may continue iteratively to create subsequent dictionaries from the words that remain uncompressed in the cache line. To decompress a word, a first bit section of the compressed word is used to identify a dictionary that is then queried for bits indexed in a second bit section of the compressed word. The uncompressed word is reconstructed by interleaving the queried bits with the removed combination of bits from a third bit section of the word.
