Transformer neural networks (TNN) have been widely utilized on a diverse range of applications, including natural language processing (NLP), machine translation, and computer vision (CV). Their widespread adoption has been primarily driven by the exceptional performance of their multi-head self-attention block used to extract key features from sequential data. The multi-head self-attention block is followed by feedforward neural networks, which play a crucial role in introducing non-linearity to assist the model in learning complex patterns. Despite the popularity of TNNs, there has been limited numbers of hardware accelerators targeting these two critical blocks. Most prior works have concentrated on sparse architectures that are not flexible for popular TNN variants. This paper introduces ProTEA, a runtime programmable accelerator tailored for the dense computations of most of state-of-the-art transformer encoders. ProTEA is designed to reduce latency by maximizing parallelism. We introduce an efficient tiling of large matrices that can distribute memory and computing resources across different hardware components within the FPGA. We provide run time evaluations of ProTEA on a Xilinx Alveo U55C high-performance data center accelerator card. Experimental results demonstrate that ProTEA can host a wide range of popular transformer networks and achieve near optimal performance with a tile size of 64 in the multi-head self-attention block and 6 in the feedforward networks block when configured with 8 parallel attention heads, 12 layers, and an embedding dimension of 768 on the U55C. Comparative results are provided showing ProTEA is 2.5× faster than an NVIDIA Titan XP GPU. Results also show that it achieves 1.3 - 2.8× speed up compared with current state-of-the-art custom designed FPGA accelerators. © 2024 IEEE.

Predicting the Power Spectrum of Amplified OFDM Signals Using Higher-Order Intercept Points

引用

Chinese Journal of Electronics 2022年第2期31卷 213-219页

作者： YAN Siyuan YANG Xianzhen WANG Xiaoru LI Fu Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering Portland State University School of Computer Science and Technology Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications

Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing(OFDM) has been developed into a popular modulation scheme for wireless communication systems, used in applications such as LTE and 5 G. In wireless communication systems, nonlinearity caused by radio frequency(RF)amplifiers will generate distortions to both passband and adjacent channels such that the transmission quality is degraded. The study of this article aims to predict the power spectrum for OFDM based signals at the output of an RF amplifier due to the nonlinearity. In this article,based on Taylor polynomial coefficients, a power spectrum expression for amplified OFDM signals in terms of intercept points(up to nth-order) is derived. This model is useful to RF engineers in choosing and testing RF amplifiers with appropriate specifications, such as intercept points and gain, to meet the requirements of wireless standards. Measurements are carried out to confirm the results of the proposed model.

As wafer circuit widths shrink less than 10 nm,stringent quality control is imposed on the wafer fabrication processes. Therefore, wafer residency time constraints and chamber cleaning operations are widely required in chemical vapor deposition, coating processes, etc. They increase scheduling complexity in cluster tools. In this paper, we focus on scheduling single-arm multi-cluster tools with chamber cleaning operations subject to wafer residency time constraints. When a chamber is being cleaned, it can be viewed as processing a virtual wafer. In this way, chamber cleaning operations can be performed while wafer residency time constraints for real wafers are not violated. Based on such a method, we present the necessary and sufficient conditions to analytically check whether a single-arm multi-cluster tool can be scheduled with a chamber cleaning operation and wafer residency time constraints. An algorithm is proposed to adjust the cycle time for a cleaning operation that lasts a long cleaning ***, algorithms for a feasible schedule are also *** an algorithm is presented for operating a multi-cluster tool back to a steady state after the cleaning. Illustrative examples are given to show the application and effectiveness of the proposed method.

Supervised deep learning for content-aware image retargeting with Fourier Convolutions

Multimedia Tools and Applications 2024年第36期83卷 83611-83627页

Image retargeting aims to alter the size of the image with attention to the contents. One of the main obstacles to training deep learning models for image retargeting is the need for a vast labeled dataset. Labeled datasets are unavailable for training deep learning models in the image retargeting tasks. As a result, we present a new supervised approach for training deep learning models. We use the original images as ground truth and create inputs for the model by resizing and cropping the original images. A second challenge is generating different image sizes in inference time. However, normal convolutional neural networks cannot generate images of different sizes than the input image. To address this issue, we introduced a new method for supervised learning. In our approach, a mask is generated to show the desired size and location of the object. Then the mask and the input image are fed to the network. Comparing image retargeting methods and our proposed method demonstrates the model’s ability to produce high-quality retargeted images. Afterward, we compute the image quality assessment score for each output image based on different techniques and illustrate the effectiveness of our approach. © The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature 2024.
