GPU/accelerator architectures have greatly improved the training and inferencing speed for neural-network-based machine learning models. As major industry players race to develop ambitious applications such as self-driving vehicles, unstructured data analytics, human-level interactive systems, and human intelligence augmentation, major challenges remain in computational methods as well as hardware/software infrastructures required for these applications to be effective, robust, responsive, accountable and cost-effective. These applications impose much higher levels of data storage capacity, access latency, energy efficiency, and throughput. In this talk, I will present a vision for building a new generation of computing components and systems for these applications.
Wen-mei W. Hwu is a Professor and holds the Sanders-AMD Endowed Chair in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He is the director of the IMPACT research group (www.crhc.uiuc.edu/Impact). He co-directs the IBM-Illinois Center for Cognitive Computing Systems Research (C3SR) and serves as one of the principal investigators of the NSF Blue Waters Petascale supercomputer. For his contributions, he received the ACM SigArch Maurice Wilkes Award, the ACM Grace Murray Hopper Award, the IEEE Computer Society Charles Babbage Award, the ISCA Influential Paper Award, the IEEE Computer Society B. R. Rau Award and the Distinguished Alumni Award in Computer Science of the University of California, Berkeley. He is a fellow of IEEE and ACM. Dr. Hwu received his Ph.D. degree in Computer Science from the University of California, Berkeley.
The Low Power Image Recognition Challenge (LPIRC) 2019 is a one-day workshop that will extend the successes of LPIRC from the past four years, identifying the best computer vision solutions that can simultaneously achieve high accuracy and energy efficiency. Since the first competition, held in 2015, the winners’ solutions have improved 24x in the ratio of accuracy divided by energy.
The live-stream of LPIRC will feature presentations from researchers and last year's winner (all times PDT):
09:30-09:40 - Welcome by Organizers and Summary of Online Challenge
09:40-10:30 - 2018 competition winners will give a talk on their winning solutions — Amazon's Tao Sheng, and Expasoft's Alexander Goncharenko and Sergey Alyamkin
10:30-11:10 - Invited Talk: Rethinking the Computations in Computer Vision (and the Hardware that Computes Them) - UC Berkeley's Kurt Keutzer
11:10-13:40 - Live-stream will shut down temporarily
13:40-14:00 - Invited Talk: Visual Wake Words Challenge - Google's Aakanksha Chowdhery and Pete Warden
