There is an emerging need to design multi-precision floating-point (FP) accelerators for high-performance-computing (HPC) applications. The commonly-used methods are based on high-precision-split (HPS) and low-precision-combination (LPC) structures, which suffer from low hardware utilization ratio various multiple clock-cycle processing periods. In this brief, a new FP element (PE) developed with proposed bit-partitioning method. Minimized redundant bits operands achieved. PE supports...
Optimized deep neural network (DNN) models and energy-efficient hardware designs are of great importance in edge-computing applications. The architecture search (NAS) methods employed for DNN model optimization with mixed-bitwidth networks. To satisfy the computation requirements, convolution accelerators highly desired low-power high-throughput performance. There exist several to support multiply-accumulate (MAC) operations accelerator designs. low-bitwidth-combination (LBC) method improves...
Approximate computing is an emerging and effective method for reducing energy consumption in digital circuits, which critical energy-efficient performance improvement of edge-computing devices. In this paper, we propose a low-power DNN accelerator with novel signed approximate multiplier based on probability-optimized compressor error compensation. The customized partial product matrix (PPM) operands, gets the optimal logic circuit after probabilistic analysis optimization. At same time,...
