A System-Level Perspective Towards Efficient, Reliable And Secure Neural Network Computing, Tao Liu

FIU Electronic Theses and Dissertations

The Digital Era is now evolving into the Intelligence Era, driven overwhelmingly by the revolution of Deep Neural Network (DNN), which opens the door for intelligent data interpretation, turning the data and information into actions that create new capabilities, richer experiences, and unprecedented economic opportunities, achieving game-changing outcomes spanning from image recognition, natural language processing, self-driving cars to biomedical analysis. Moreover, the emergence of deep learning accelerators and neuromorphic computing further pushes DNN computation from cloud to the edge devices for the low-latency scalable on-device neural network computing. However, such promising embedded neural network computing systems are subject to various …
