Meanings
-
(qualifier:machine learning) A specialized hardware circuit designed to accelerate machine learning applications.
In addition, the large weight size inevitably causes latency, power, and energy overhead when transferring the weight data between the storage/memory and the processing units, such as central processing units (CPUs), graphic processing units (GPUs), neural processing units (NPUs), or accelerators, which are not desirable for resource-constrained edge devices.
