TinyML and Efficient Deep Learning

Today’s AI is too big. Deep neural networks demand extraordinary levels of data and computation, and therefore power, for training and inference. This severely limits the practical deployment of AI in edge devices. We aim to improve the efficiency of neural network design. First, I’ll present MCUNet that brings deep learning to IoT devices. MCUNet is a framework that jointly designs the efficient neural architecture (TinyNAS) and the light-weight inference engine (TinyEngine), enabling ImageNet-scale inference on micro-controllers that have only 1MB of Flash. Next I will introduce Once-for-All Network, an efficient neural architecture search approach, that can elastically grow and shrink the model capacity according to the target hardware resource and latency constraints. From inference to training, I’ll present TinyTL that enables tiny transfer learning on-device, reducing the memory footprint by 7-13x. Finally, I will describe data-efficient GAN training techniques that can generate photo-realistic images using only 100 images, which used to require tens of thousands of images. We hope such TinyML techniques can make AI greener, faster, more efficient and more sustainable.

 


 

From Assisted to Automated Driving

The development of assisted and automated driving technologies continue to advance at a rapid pace.  While the introduction of Level 5 autonomous vehicles capable of unsupervised driving in unstructured environments remains a long term goal, we are well on our way with Level 1 and 2 functions already available in many cars today. This keynote presentation will explore the challenges we face in achieving higher levels of automation, as well as the enabling technologies, new vehicle architectures and enhanced design methodologies that are necessary to deploy Level 3 and 4 automated systems.

Build Safe & Secure Automotive SoCs with ISO 26262 Compliant Security IP

Ruud Derwig, Senior Staff Engineer, 草榴社区

The automotive industry is undergoing a significant transformation. Cars are offering increased connectivity and capabilities to provide a better driver/passenger experience. The increased connectivity means that they are also collecting and transmitting more sensitive data between in-car systems and the cloud, and thus are becoming very attractive targets to hackers. Security must be addressed from the ground up starting with the SoC, and when applied to cars, security needs to be approached together with automotive safety in a holistic manner. Designing security into automotive SoCs from the hardware level with safe and secure Hardware Secure Module (HSM) IP with a root of trust will help ensure that connected cars behave as expected, prevent random and systematic faults, and are able to fend off malicious attacks. Join this session to learn how the tRoot HSM for Automotive and ARC SEM130FS Processor implement the critical security and safety functions required throughout the automotive SoC life cycle.

New Embedded Model for Fast & Accurate 3D Object Detection for LiDAR

Selameab Demilew, Computer Vision Engineer, Sensor Cortek

Robust and timely perception of the environment is an essential requirement of all autonomous and semi-autonomous systems. This necessity has been the main factor behind the rapid growth and adoption of LiDAR sensors within the ADAS sensor suite. This presentation will describe a new, fast and accurate 3D object detector, FA3D, that converts raw point clouds collected by LiDARs into sparse occupancy cuboids to detect cars and other road agents using a deep convolutional neural network. This highly flexible mode uses an efficient input encoding representation that is multiple times faster to compute on a CPU and more compact to transfer to a GPU, without increasing power. As a result, FA3D reduces by almost 50% the detection runtime compared to popular 3D detection networks and performs on par with other state-of-the-art models. The performance results of this network will be demonstrated for the case of vehicle and vulnerable road user detection. The presentation will also compare the performance of this model on three off-the-shelf neural network accelerators: 1) a high-end workstation equipped with a Core-i7 CPU and a RTX 2080 Ti graphics card, 2) a Jetson AGX Xavier (a single board embedded computer with an 8-core ARM processor and 512-core Volta GPU), and 3) 草榴社区 DesignWare EV Vision Processor IP core with a highly optimized CNN engine.

How SiMa.ai Addresses Security at the Edge with Comprehensive Hardware and IP 草榴社区

Sharath Raghava, System Architect, SiMa.ai

With the evolution of edge computing, edge devices are handling more data processing at the source instead of sending it to the cloud. The edge devices are distributed and decentralized, enabling them to perform necessary computations on-device rather than outsourcing it to the cloud. These devices report results into aggregators and eventually into a centralized compute resource on the premises or cloud. This heterogeneous architecture offers some data security advantages but also brings increased risks in access security. Join this session with SiMa.ai to learn how SiMa.ai is addressing security risks at the edge by providing comprehensive solutions within its leading MLSoC? platform including the root of trust, secure boot, and runtime authentication to address diverse customer needs.

Optimizing SoC Simulation Time by >5X Using an Instruction Accurate Behavioral Model Provided by 草榴社区 DesignWare? ARC? nSIM

Ravi Mangal, Manager, ASIC Design Verification, Micron

A typical SoC has multiple processors to offload the main CPU and achieve the required bandwidth for data intensive end-to-end operations. Verification of these SoCs requires compiling C code and loading this compiled code into the processor, after which the CPU starts executing these instructions and initiates a series of read/write operations on the system bus. Since processors are mostly pre-verified, the verification at the SoC level is mostly targeted to check interactions among multiple peripherals and memories. A datapath scenario is time consuming because of the large number of memory read, write and compare operations and reproducing a failure might cause a lot of rerun time due to long running memory accesses. To overcome this issue, most of the SoC level environment performs backdoor operations on memory access but this requires modifications in the C tests along with handshaking with the SV/UVM testbench. The same C test cannot be run on FPGA/emulation platforms due to backdoor dependencies, which creates issues with reusability of C tests on these platforms. In this presentation, we will describe how integrating the 草榴社区 ARC nSIM instruction set simulator in our simulation environment reduced simulation runtime by more than 5x.

Software Self-Test as a Safety Mechanism for Processing Units

Nikolay Anikeev, Software Architect and Technical Lead, 草榴社区

The growing dependency of modern automobiles on electronic functions increases the need for many kinds of integrated circuits (IC) for safety critical applications. Requirements coming from different in-car subsystems mandate chip manufactures to create a wide range of specialized solutions. This in turn raises the bar for automotive IP suppliers and pushes them to offer configurable and extensible IP products. When IP configurability meets safety standards, it brings new technical challenges. Dual core lock step (DCLS), which is now the dominating safety mechanism for processing units, cannot work anymore as a one-fits-all approach. Increasing complexity of automotive grade ICs requires non-DCLS solutions. This trend brings new safety mechanisms into play. Software based self-test is one of those which has started to see increased demand. This presentation introduces Software Test Libraries (or STL) and explains how a holistic safety approach to hardware design can help to create an optimal combination of hardware and software safety mechanisms, demonstrating the best possible power, performance, area hardware metrics and minimal runtime software overheads.

Software Development for Safety-Critical Heterogeneous Multicore MCUs with Parallel Processing Unit

Joachim Hampp, Product Architect, TASKING Germany GmbH

Increasingly, automotive SoCs are implementing heterogeneous multicore microcontrollers that consist of several identical processor cores, several different processors/controllers to perform specialized tasks, as well as parallel processing units to increase overall performance. However, there are a number of challenges to be addressed when switching from an embedded single core to a heterogeneous embedded multicore system. To avoid delays and unforeseen risks it is necessary to implement a highly optimized software architecture. Additionally, the software development and debug tools used must comprehensively support the selected heterogeneous multicore microcontroller and interact seamlessly with each other. Since the implementation of the software components typically takes place in phases over a potentially lengthy development period it is important to continuously focus on ensuring safety under the ISO 26262 or IEC 61508 standards for all software components and development tools. This presentation will describe these challenges and provide tips and techniques for addressing them.
