Publication number: 20230359876Abstract: Generating instructions for programming a processing element array to implement a convolution operation can include determining that the convolution operation under-utilizes the processing element array. The convolution operation involves using the processing element array to perform a series of matrix multiplications between a set of filters and a set of input matrices. Each filter comprises a weight matrix. Each input matrix is assigned to a respective row in the processing element array. Under-utilization can be determined through detecting that less than a threshold number of rows would be used concurrently. In response to determining that the convolution operation under-utilizes the processing element array, instructions can be added for modifying the convolution operation to increase the number of rows used concurrently. The added instructions are executable to cause at least one input matrix to be processed in parallel across more rows compared to processing without modifying the convolution operation.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 14, 2023Publication date: November 9, 2023Inventors: Jeffrey T. Huynh, Ron Diamant, Hongbin Zheng, Yizhi Liu, Animesh Jain, Yida Wang, Vinod Sharma, Richard John Heaton, Randy Renfu Huang, Sundeep Amirineni, Drazen Borkovic

Publication number: 20210158131Abstract: Methods and apparatuses for hierarchical partitioning of operators of a neural network for execution on an acceleration engine are provided. Neural networks are built in machine learning frameworks using neural network operators. The neural network operators are compiled into executable code for the acceleration engine. Development of new framework-level operators can exceed the capability to map the newly developed framework-level operators onto the acceleration engine. To enable neural networks to be executed on an acceleration engine, hierarchical partitioning can be used to partition the operators of the neural network. The hierarchical partitioning can identify operators that are supported by a compiler for execution on the acceleration engine, operators to be compiled for execution on a host processor, and operators to be executed on the machine learning framework.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 27, 2019Publication date: May 27, 2021Inventors: Animesh Jain, Yizhi Liu, Hongbin Zheng, Jeffrey T.
