This two-part tutorial presents an update on Intel HLS flow and the Intel FPGA AI Suite. In the first part, we will have a 30-minute update on how the latest oneAPI tool flow for IP authoring works. In the second part we will present Intel FPGA AI Suite and groundbreaking AI Tensor Blocks newly integrated into Intel's latest FPGA device families for deep learning inference. These...

More and more researchers working in fields such as drug discovery, weather forecasting, climate modelling and high-energy particle physics are looking towards AI-based approaches to enhance their applications, both in terms of accuracy and time-to-result. Furthermore, new approaches such as PINNs are revolutionising how neural networks can learn to emulate physical systems governed by...

Pruning enhances neural network hardware efficiency by zeroing out weight magnitude. In order to take full advantage of pruning, efficient implementations of sparse matrix multiplication are required. The current hls4ml implementations of sparse matrix multiplication rely on either the built in high-level synthesis zero suppression operations or a coordinate list representation, which faces...

I will consider randomly initialized controlled ResNets and show that in the infinite-width-depth limit and under appropriate rescaling of weights and biases, these architectures converge weakly to Gaussian processes indexed on path-space and with kernels realised as solutions of certain data-dependent PDEs, varying according to the choice of activation function. In the special case where the...
