不同于传统的计算架构 –
AI推理不同于典型的串行应用(typical sequential application),更类似于图像处理的并行计算,主要是加法和乘法(multiplication and accumulation)。
模拟计算架构 –
This is possible by using the memory elements as tunable resistors, supplying the inputs as voltages and collecting the outputs as currents. We use analog computing for our core neural network matrix operations, where we are multiplying an input vector by a weight matrix.
