We introduce LightOns Optical Processing Unit (OPU), the first photonic AI accelerator chip available on the market for at-scale Non von Neumann computations, reaching 1500 TeraOPS. It relies on a combination of free-space optics with off-the-shelf components, together with a software API allowing a seamless integration within Python-based processing pipelines. We discuss a variety of use cases and hybrid network architectures, with the OPU used in combination of CPU/GPU, and draw a pathway towards optical advantage.
Many architects believe that major improvements in cost-energy-performance must now come from domain-specific hardware. This paper evaluates a custom ASIC---called a Tensor Processing Unit (TPU)---deployed in datacenters since 2015 that accelerates t
We prove a version of the data-processing inequality for the relative entropy for general von Neumann algebras with an explicit lower bound involving the measured relative entropy. The inequality, which generalizes previous work by Sutter et al. on f
A non-volatile SRAM cell is proposed for low power applications using Spin Transfer Torque-Magnetic Tunnel Junction (STT-MTJ) devices. This novel cell offers non-volatile storage, thus allowing selected blocks of SRAM to be switched off during standb
Nanopore genome sequencing is the key to enabling personalized medicine, global food security, and virus surveillance. The state-of-the-art base-callers adopt deep neural networks (DNNs) to translate electrical signals generated by nanopore sequencer
Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have dramatically advanced in recent years, resulting in revolutionary changes in peoples lives. Empowered by edge computing, AI workloads are migrating from centralized cloud architectures to distributed edg
