product description
DeepEye1000
DeepEye1000 is a deep learning neural network inference acceleration processor chip for computer vision. The chip uses a heterogeneous multi-core parallel computing architecture design, a built-in neural network processor with independent property rights, uses a self-developed deep custom instruction set, supports flexible programmable computing streams, can provide 2.0Tops peak computing power, and can efficiently execute various deep learning algorithms Inference calculation of the model to achieve high-performance, low-power CNN.
The network model inference calculation is accelerated to meet the performance requirements of the real-time processing of the visual AI algorithm. Compared with general-purpose GPUs, DeepEye1000 has a 20-fold increase in unit performance, a 100-fold increase in unit energy efficiency, and a 200-fold reduction in system latency.
DeepEye1000 also provides an open source and open chip tool chain based on TVM, supporting mainstream deep learning frameworks such as Caffe, MxNET, and TensorFlow. Support real-time face detection, tracking, feature extraction and recognition of multiple video streams, support face attribute detection such as sunglasses, masks, gender, age, etc., support human attribute detection such as clothing recognition, expression recognition, and backpack recognition; except for running people In addition to the face algorithm, it also supports the transplantation and application of other deep learning inference algorithms, which can be widely used in smart cameras, industrial detection, robots, drones and other fields.
The current chip technology faces three major challenges: the "inefficient" chip instruction set, the "inflexible" chip architecture, and the "difficult to use" processor tool chain. In response to these problems, Yuntian Lifei innovatively proposed the "algorithm-on-chip" chip design method, and realized three innovative technologies-scalable instruction set definition, software-definable computing architecture, and adaptive one-click tool chain.
In terms of "scalable instruction set definition", Yuntian Lifei proposed a deep separable convolution strategy, established a multi-branch expanded convolution structure, designed a combination of soft and hard neural network model compression and acceleration method, and established A set of multi-level profile hybrid computing neural network processor instruction set. Through the above-mentioned innovative technical means, Yuntian Lifei has increased the model execution efficiency of the neural network processor by more than 2 times, and its energy efficiency has been increased by more than 100 times than that of general-purpose GPUs.
In terms of "software-definable computing architecture", the current architecture's problem lies in the variety of algorithms and applications, and the computing framework cannot efficiently meet the diverse needs. Yuntian Lifei innovatively proposed the ASIP-LSF loosely coupled processor architecture and design, and built a multi-core heterogeneous hardware adaptive task scheduling and content management architecture, which enables the chip to flexibly support mainstream algorithm frameworks and nearly a hundred visual algorithms. Greatly improve the flexibility of the processor.
In terms of "adaptive one-click tool chain", the existing tool chain has the problem of deployment difficulties in implementing algorithm optimization and deployment from the cloud (training) to the end (inference) model. However, Yuntian Lifei designed its own An adaptive neural network model compilation tool chain, an adaptive chip model deployment SDK development platform, and a model multi-parameter automatic tuning platform have been built, which shortens the algorithm migration and deployment cycle to 2 weeks, and the chip ease-of-use rate is increased by more than 10 times on average .
