Why is it important?
Hardware architectures for deep learning computing have thousands of cores. Each of these cores has basic parallel multiply-accumulation units. The efficient design of these units determines the hardware solution's final cost and the throughput performance. We were able to design very efficient fused multiply-add units that improve the area and performance of dot-product units.
Perspectives
This work opens new perspectives on applying FPGAs in the design of deep learning models.
