Loom: Exploiting Weight and Activation Precisions to Accelerate Convolutional Neural Networks [PDF]
2018 55th ACM/ESDA/IEEE Design Automation Conference (DAC), 2018 Loom (LM), a hardware inference accelerator for Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) is presented. In LM every bit of data precision that can be saved translates to proportional performance gains. Specifically, for convolutional layers LM's execution time scales inversely proportionally with the precisions of both weights and activations.
