| 英文摘要: |
| With the increasing demand of computational power in artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms,
dedicated accelerators have become a necessity. However, the complexity of hardware architectures,
vast design search space, and complex tasks of accelerators have posed significant challenges. Traditional
search methods can become prohibitively slow if the search space continues to be expanded.
A design space exploration (DSE) method is proposed based on transfer learning, which reduces the
time for repeated training and uses multi-task models for different tasks on the same processor. The
proposed method accurately predicts the latency and energy consumption associated with neural network
accelerator design parameters, enabling faster identification of optimal outcomes compared with
traditional methods. And compared with other DSE methods by using multilayer perceptron (MLP),
the required training time is shorter. Comparative experiments with other methods demonstrate that
the proposed method improves the efficiency of DSE without compromising the accuracy of the results. |
