Publication number: 20250053611Abstract: Embodiment described herein provide systems, apparatuses and methods for convoluting a filter (“kernel”) to input data in the form of an input array by reusing computations of repeated data entries in the input array due to convolution movements from one convolution step to the next. In one embodiment, to compute a convolution of an input matrix and a filter matrix, instead of unrolling data entries from the input matrix of each convolution step into an input vector, only non-repeated new data entries at each convolution step may be added to the input vector. An input mapping circuit that implements an input parameter mapping matrix may then iteratively map data entries of the input vector to different weight registers that corresponds to weights in the filter matrix.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 3, 2024Publication date: February 13, 2025Inventors: Win-San Khwa, Yi-Lun Lu, Jen-Chieh Liu, Jui-Jen Wu, Meng-Fan Chang

Publication number: 20240193032Abstract: A computer-implemented method, system and computer program product for identifying a root cause of failures in a CI/CD pipeline. Tags for tasks, templates and/or variables of the operator and the CI/CD pipeline are extracted. Code of the tagged tasks, templates and/or variables of the operator are mapped with the code of the tagged tasks, templates and/or variables of the Cl/CD pipeline forming mappings. Additionally, code of the tagged tasks, templates and/or variables between the roles of the operator are mapped forming mappings. Upon receiving a notification of a failure in the Cl/CD pipeline, a root cause of the failure is identified by searching such mappings for a mapped role or task in relation to the role or task involving the software product which failed in the CI/CD pipeline and searching the log file of the operator for an error in connection with such mapped role or task.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 9, 2022Publication date: June 13, 2024Inventors: Shu Jun Tang, Jia Lin Wang, Qi Han Zheng, Yi Fan Wu, Jing Jing Wei, Zhi Li Guan, Yang Kang
