BRN Discussion Ongoing

Just sittin down for dinner F&Chips with a brewski, and boom, first time I’ve seen a TV advert for Samsungs new phone GALAXY AI ! 👊🏼👊🏼

Are we powering this droid ?

Bring it 💥

And Todd Vierra makes a point of describing OnSemi as their PARTNER.

To run a safety critical system of the type OnSemi describe and which Todd Vierra also alludes to would require significant power reserved for this purpose away from the driving wheels if running conventional Von Neumann compute which would require active cooling as some of these functions such as child detection need to run after the vehicle has been turned off across the full range of climatic conditions.

While there are other low powered neuromorphic processors they are not capable of running all the five senses plus radar, Lidar and ultrasonic and perform regression analysis and sensor fusion while being sensor and process agnostic and maintaining the cyber security for intelligent airbag deployment.

In safety critical systems providing redundancy is also a factor to consider and again comparing the AKIDA platform with the Nvidia Jetson series its compact small form and low weight makes it a winner.

My opinion only DYOR

I just came across this article, but I don't know if you've already talked through it.

Do we know anything about I/ONX? Somehow I can't find much there, it's a small company and I can't find anything related to Brainchip.

.....,
nobody inside industry has worked at, much less seriously considered, challenging the Von Neumann architecture. There are attempts at quantum computing, where the environmental requirements are even more absurd than the Nvidia solutions... And then there is Neuromorphic computing.

Neuromorphic computing attempts to mimic how the organic brain functions, instead of the one-bit-at-a-time approach of the Von Neumann architecture. And this is where the real solution to viable AI lies.
....
I/ONX is a company that reached out to me for my input.

Their approach was to throw out the Von Neumann architecture and build a completely new instruction set for computer processors called Kore, which eliminates the time limitations imposed by the one-bit-at-a-time approach.

I'm sure he will be dressed like this when he mentions AKIDA being used in their new cars:)

Very important point to understand. Joined Intel programme in 2020 and other neurophonic programmed as well.
EQXX was displayed in 2021 and Mercedes told the world akida is 10 times better than any other available solution for keyword spotting.
So if you reason it out point is clear

I still have Samsung in my "Competitors" folder.

This 2021 patent application for automatic translating phones does not use Akida. Of course, its performance would be greatly enhanced by Akida, but does Samsung know that?

[0093] The neural network model stored in the memory 130 may be a model based on a statistical machine translation (SMT) model or a model based on a neural machine translation (NMT). The neural network machine translation model (NMT) has an effect of outputting a natural and highly-quality translation by performing translation in units of whole sentences and phrases, rather than translating words individually.

To incorporate Akida, the whole circuit architecture shown would need to be redesigned from the ground up.

It's great that Marcus mentions "Hey Mercedes!" in the context of MB.OS because that means that, while MB.OS was being designed, they were well aware of Akida, so this increases the likelihood of Akida being compatible with MB.OS, or, to put it another way, there is an increased chance that MB.OS has been designed so that it is compatible with Akida among other technologies.

"In the ongoing development of the MBUX Virtual Assistant, it opens up wider freedoms for innovation than would be possible with an off-the-shelf solution from a third-party provider."

Morning TopCat & Fellow Chippers ,

Just joining some dots and adding a possible sweetener.....

INTEL FOUNDRY PARTNERS , BRAINCHIP & SAM ALTMAN all in the same room.

Article on ChatGPT , CEO Sam Altman ( OpenAI ) & Arizona State University .

Arizona State University happens to be one of Brainchips technology training partners.

Drawing a long bow..... bit like Sam is stalking us, in a good way hopefully.

😃.

When things turn for the better and weather that’s on Monday next week or in a years time and there’s movement in the share price what would be the least amount of shares you want to have in your portfolio?

Every day is one day closer to financial independence.

Sorry I can’t find the full paper only the abstract


Neuromorphic Medical Image Analysis at the Edge: On-Edge training with the Akida Brainchip

Bråtman, Ebba​

Dow, Lucas​

2023 (English)Independent thesis Basic level (degree of Bachelor), 10 credits / 15 HE creditsStudent thesisAlternative title
Medicinsk bildanalys med neuromorfisk hårdvara : On-Edge-träning med Akida Brainchip (Swedish)

Abstract [en]​


Computed Tomography (CT) scans play a crucial role in medical imaging, allowing neuroscientists to identify intracranial pathologies such as haemorrhages and malignant tumours in the brain. This thesis explores the potential of deep learning models as an aid in intracranial pathology detection through medical imaging. By first creating a convolutional neural network model capable of identifying brain haemorrhage and then moving it onto the neuromorphic processor Akida AKD1000, it allowed the usage of Spiking Neural Networks and on-edge retraining capabilities. In a process called few-shot learning, the model was trained to also identify brain tumours with minimal additional samples. The research further investigated how the parameters used in the edge-learning influenced classification accuracy. It was shown that the parameter selection and interaction introduced a trade-off in regard to accuracy for the haemorrhage and tumour classification models, but an optimal constellation of parameters could be extracted. These results aim to serve as a foundation for future endeavours in image analysis using neuromorphic hardware, specifically within the domain of few-shot and on-edge learning. The integration of these models in the medical field has the potential to streamline the diagnosis of intracranial pathologies, enhancing accuracy and efficiency while unloading medical professionals.

There we go again....AKD 1000 doing us so proud !! "Too narrow in it's offerings" that comment still haunts me today.

I fully understand how new, more advanced iterations of Akida must be developed to drive our company forward in doing so, accommodating current and future customers requirements as we all grow, but as I have commented on many times now, please appreciate how AKD1000 was
a masterly achievement a few years ago.

As far as newer iterations are concerned, I think there is a little bit of confusion with regards AKD I AKD II AKD III up to AKD X...I did ask
Peter about this very thing in 2022/23 as to how he saw future iterations evolving over the next 7 year period, i.e. 2023 thru to 2030.

With regards reaching AGI by or around 2030, he said that it's possible in his opinion, but nothing is 100% certain, also that following the
earlier suggested path that appeared in an old slide showing AKD 1 1.5 thru to AKD X wasn't the plan in his mind, but I'll track down his
emailed reply to me before going any further, just in case I mix up his words and find myself in a spot of trouble, so to speak.

I'm hoping to hear some news late in 2024, early 2025 as to how AKD III is or has progressed, but lets not get too far ahead of ourselves,
we first need to achieve some solid traction reflected by ever increasing revenue streams created by both AKD 1 and AKD II....also it
would be nice to hear from our new guy in charge of sales, Steve Thorne on a company podcast, possibly too early but something during
the year would be nice in my opinion.

Regards to all.....Tech :coffee:(y)

Is this already the MB NC special that we voted on or is there more to come? Maybe I have overlooked the link to the paper?
I mean, there were months to work it out. I don't want to grumble, I was just waiting for more insight. What was provided before for the wait until now was richer than this disclaimer. I think there should be more to come. I'd be grateful if someone could point me in the right direction.
