Problems solved by technology

Since the GPU is a device specially used to perform graphics and image calculations and scientific calculations, without special support for multi-layer artificial neural network operations, it still requires a lot of front-end decoding work to perform multi-layer artificial neural network operations, which brings a lot of problems. additional cost
In addition, the GPU only has a small on-chip cache, and the model data (weights) of the multi-layer artificial neural network need to be repeatedly moved from off-chip, and the off-chip bandwidth has become the main performance bottleneck.
In addition, the GPU has only a small on-chip cache, and the model data (weights) of the multi-layer artificial neural network need to be repeatedly moved from off-chip. The off-chip bandwidth has become the main performance bottleneck, and it has brought huge power consumption overhead.
[0013] Therefore, using the above-mentioned traditional technology to perform self-learning operations on multi-layer artificial neural networks, the power consumption overhead is relatively high
