Peipei Zhou

ABSTRACT

Modern AI compute SOCs have abundant computation cores, interconnects & high-bandwidth memory (HBM) resources. When facing enormous different neural network architectures, how to program AI compute chips to make full use of the system resources becomes challenging. In this talk, I will share an automated code generation framework "Autotuning through design space pruning & schedule templates" to program a commercial AI compute chip to achieve improvements in both accelerator performance and coding efficiency.
