On September 11th, 2020 Serena Curzel and Luca Pozzoni will take a talk on “ML Accelerators” as a part of their Summer School “ACACES 2020”.

Machine Learning techniques are nowadays found in a wide spectrum of applications, and often require significant amounts of computational power in order to be implemented.

At the same time, stagnation of processors technology opened the door to the development of accelerators dedicated to ML inference, which offer substantial improvements both in terms of efficiency and computational power. In this seminar we present some examples of recently developed commercial accelerators for machine learning, together with modern techniques for model size redution as presented in the ACACES 2020 summer school arranged by the HiPEAC network.

The event will be hold online via Microsoft Teams.
