April 6, 2018

Briefing

  • NVIDIA-ARM Partnership – Graphics chip supplier NVIDIA and semiconductor firm ARM announced partnership to bring deep learning inferencing capability (i.e. process where artificial intelligence (AI) gains insights from new data based on training) to billions of Internet-of-Things devices
  • Systems Integration – Will integrate NVIDIA Deep Learning Accelerator (NVDLA) architecture, which promotes standardized way to design deep learning inference accelerators, into ARM’s Project Trillium machine learning platform
  • NVDLA Origin – Based on NVIDIA Xavier, autonomous machine system-on-a-chip introduced in early 2018, and developer tools such as upcoming versions of TensorRT, a programmable deep learning accelerator
  • Benefits – Can enable IoT chip companies to integrate artificial intelligence in their designs, with deep learning inferencing capabilities embedded in device instead of being processed from data centers
