BRN Discussion Ongoing

[Fact Finder]

Talking about people talking, what about the people in the know, that is the people outside Brainchip who have technical, commercial and market expertise and who have dug deep into Brainchip, its AKIDA technology platforms and bought a ticket on the bus:

SOCIONEXT:
“As a leading provider of ASICs worldwide, we are pleased to offer our customers advanced technologies driving new innovations,” said Noriaki Kubo, Corporate Executive Vice President of Socionext Inc. “The Akida family of products allows us to stay at the forefront of the burgeoning AI market. BrainChip and Socionext have successfully collaborated on the Akida IC development and together, we aim to commercialize this product family and support our increasingly diverse customer base.”

MEGACHIPS:
“As a trusted and loyal partner to market leaders, we deliver the technology and expertise they need to ensure products are uniquely designed for their customers and engineered for ultimate performance,” said Tetsuo Hikawa, President and CEO of MegaChips. “Working with BrainChip and incorporating their Akida technology into our ASIC solutions service, we are better able to handle the development and support processes needed to design and manufacture integrated circuits and systems on chips that can take advantage of AI at the Edge.”

MERCEDES BENZ:
“Working with California-based artificial intelligence experts BrainChip, Mercedes-Benz engineers developed systems based on BrainChip’s Akida hardware and software,” Mercedes noted in a statement describing the Vision EQXX. “The example in the Vision EQXX is the “Hey Mercedes” hot-word detection. Structured along neuromorphic principles, it is five to ten times more efficient than conventional voice control,” the carmaker claimed

VORAGO:
Bernd Lienhard, VORAGO CEO added, “We are thrilled and honored to partner with BrainChip to harness the radiation hardening capabilities of our patented HARDSIL® technology for the Phase I program with NASA. Our ongoing mission of creating components with increased availability and unmatched solutions in aerospace and defense applications paired with the Akida neuromorphic processor will create unprecedented standards moving forward in the industry.”

SiFIVE:
Employing Akida, BrainChip’s specialized, differentiated AI engine, with high-performance RISC-V processors such as the SiFive Intelligence Series is a natural choice for companies looking to seamlessly integrate an optimized processor to dedicated ML accelerators that are a must for the demanding requirements of edge AI computing,” said Chris Jones, vice president, products at SiFive. “BrainChip is a valuable addition to our ecosystem portfolio”. Jones described work done so far as the “tip of the iceberg,” adding that the two companies have so far demonstrated compatibility of BrainChip’s IP with SiFive’s RISC–V architecture. The companies will work together on an ongoing basis to further integrate software and hardware IP.”

NVISO:
“Our work with BrainChip will support AI’s demanding power/cost/performance needs for OEMs, even at mass production and scale, so they can benefit from faster and more efficient development cycles,” said Tim Llewellynn, CEO of NVISO. “Ultra-low power edge-based consumer processing is expected to deliver a more intelligent and individualized user experience, and we believe running our AI solutions for Social Robots and In-cabin Monitoring Systems on Akida will provide a competitive edge for joint customers demanding always-on features on low power budgets.”

NASA:
No comment. We are not allowed to talk about it.

RENESAS:
No comment yet. We are told to expect MCU's to be released this year.

As well as these tip of the iceberg quotes we are told there are those who consider Brainchip's AKIDA technology as their Kryptonite, their strategic advantage, their strategic differentiator who have bought a ticket on the bus but are wearing dark glasses, hats pulled down, overcoat collars turned up who will not answer questions and will not speak lest they be identified and their competitors catch on and try to catch the same bus to market dominance. Their absolute and committed silence speaks louder than words.

AKIDA BALLISTA

The following quote has long been attributed to Abraham Lincoln but in recent times it is thought he may have collected it from a French writer but whether they were his original words or not they are relevant to the campaign that the AFR, the MF, HC and others including WANCA have run against this company and as they imply eventually the above words will drown out these manipulators for:

"You can fool all the people some of the time and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time."

"One can fool some men, or fool all men in some places and times, but one cannot fool all men in all places and ages."

That which is inevitable is approaching at faster and faster pace and those with patience and vision will be vindicated many times over.

Well the first thing I would say is it does not apply to AKIDA technology.

So far the issue with deep training models has been that they are not intelligent so if the programmers do not like shapely short women with green eyes, olive complexions and dark hair this bias might reflect in how they program and this will be an ingrained feature and the deeply trained machine will have no insight and select on the basis of this flawed programming.

It may not even be biased it might be just forgetfulness such as happened with the women pushing a bike across a road having not been a trained image.

Currently when a manager who likes this type of person becomes aware that there are no women matching this description on the shop floor he or she has to suck it up or close everything down and send it back for retraining.

AKIDA on the other hand allows on device personalisation so having noticed this anomaly the manager grabs a few photos and with one shot learning adds this missing profile.

The forgetfulness issue is resolved this way as well - but AKIDA does not identify objects as a whole but looks for enough points of similarity to say this is a person regardless of whether they are pushing a bike or standing on their head naked in the middle of the road.

In both scenarios on chip learning allows human frailty to be accounted for and resolved.

AKIDA allows for the fact that humans are not perfect and make mistakes which may need to be corrected on the fly.

Akida-Scalable Neural Network AI Silicon IP​

Akida-Scalable Neural Network AI Silicon IP T2M​

Overview:





The Akida Neuromorphic IP is the first neuromorphic IP available in the market. Inspired by the biological function of neurons but engineered on a digital logic process, this event-based spiking neural network (SNN) IP is inherently lower power than traditional convolutional neural networks (CNN) accelerator IP. Because the IP is based upon neuromorphic SNN, it enables unsupervised learning allowing for autonomous edge applications. The Akida Neuromorphic IP contains interfaces through a standard AIX bus making it easitly integrated with any ASIC controller.

The Akida Neuromorphic IP offers unsurpassed performance on a performance-per-watt basis. The flexible Neural Processing Cores (NPCs) which form the Akida Neuron Fabric can be configured to perform convolutions (CNP) and fully connected (FNP) layers.

The Akida Neuron Fabric enables SNNs to be placed in
either a parallelized manner for ultimate performance or
space-optimized to reduce silicon utilization and power
consumption. Users can also modify the clock frequency,
further optimizing performance and power consumption.

Deliverables:​

• Available as standard RTL for designing into embedded systems
• Provide testbenches
• Other standard IP integration support infrastructure

Features:​

• Most efficient spiking neural network implementation
• Able to replicate most of the CNN functionality
• 10 classifiers (517k Neurons)

SiFive and BrainChip Partner to Demo IP Compatibility​

By Sally Ward-Foxton 04.20.2022 0

SiFive and BrainChip have partnered to show their IP is compatible in SoC designs for embedded artificial intelligence (AI). The companies have demonstrated BrainChip’s neuromorphic processing unit (NPU) IP working alongside SiFive’s RISC–V host processor IP.
Brainchip’s NPU processor IP, the basis for its Akida chip, is a neuromorphic processor designed to accelerate spiking neural networks. This IP can be used to analyze inputs from most sensor types, including cameras, to provide ultra–low power analysis in real–time applications. A recent BrainChip demo showed its Akida chip in a vehicle, detecting the driver, recognizing the driver’s face, and identifying their voice simultaneously. Keyword spotting required 600 µW, facial recognition needed 22 mW, and the visual wake–word inference used to detect the driver was 6–8 mW.

SiFive is a provider of RISC–V processor IP, including its Intelligence series of multi–core capable RISC–V processors with vector extensions which are optimized for AI workloads in edge devices.

“BrainChip can run [AI] algorithms on their own, but when they move into a larger system, they will need a host processor,” Chris Jones, vice president, product at SiFive, told EE Times. “You could pick a host processor that does nothing but scheduling, or you could pick a host processor that actually contributes to the AI processing, and that’s where the SiFive Intelligence product comes in.”
In an SoC design for edge AI, the AI workload would typically be split between host processor, vector processor, and AI accelerator — some parts of edge workloads are better suited to general purpose compute rather than a dedicated AI accelerator, Jones said.

“It’s advantageous for BrainChip to align with industry leaders to make sure their customers have a seamless integration experience, so BrainChip can deliver the requisite software that runs on the host processor and makes it easier for the end user to integrate their products and ours,” he said.
Jones described work done so far as the “tip of the iceberg,” adding that the two companies have so far demonstrated compatibility of BrainChip’s IP with SiFive’s RISC–V architecture. The companies will work together on an ongoing basis to further integrate software and hardware IP.
“We have ambitious plans going forward,” Jones said. “SiFive has made great strides in the last year or so, bringing vector processing to market now that [vector processing] has found its niche in AI and image signal processing.”
Part of SiFive’s plan is to build an ecosystem of AI accelerator IP providers whose products are compatible with its host processor IP.
“Our relationship with BrainChip is in no way exclusive,” Jones said. “BrainChip is the first partner we’ve gone public with, but we’re talking to many other players in this space.”
While BrainChip is the company’s first hardware IP partner, SiFive has design wins for its host processor IP, including data center AI accelerator company Tenstorrent.
“Certainly, we’re open to exploring partnerships with people who have novel technology,” he said. “Companies that are bringing IP or chips to market can’t ignore RISC–V as a platform just because of the market share we’re taking.”

IMO this kind of media announcement of

SiFive and BrainChip Partner to Demo IP Compatibility​

is definitely worthy of an ASX announcement from our head office to show the broader market who aren't searching the globe from BRN AKIDA media releases that we are actually making progress.
Its called a market update.
The same goes for the Merc media release and anything else newsworthy.
If its big enough news be in the world media, the Company needs to officially update the ASX market, in the interest of shareholder investors. IMO

I agree, back on 20/08/2020 we did announce these types of partnerships then our SP was around 25c then and three weeks later (09/09/2020) around 75c !! so ASX announcements DO make a difference just not sure why this doesn't happen anymore??

If they have 100 companies interested in signing it could get a bit monotonous with announcements after a while! . I don’t think these latest engagements are but it could start to look like fluff announcements!

I’m hopeful Brainchip aren’t as concerned with minor ASX announcements as they will outline their progress at the AGM and the financials will do the talking in the 4c.

I am glad their focus is on selling the product and not the SP!

Fuck Evil Putin!

Nun, das erste, was ich sagen würde, ist, dass es nicht auf die AKIDA-Technologie zutrifft.

Bisher bestand das Problem bei Deep-Training-Modellen darin, dass sie nicht intelligent sind. Wenn die Programmierer also keine wohlgeformten kleinen Frauen mit grünen Augen, olivfarbenem Teint und dunklem Haar mögen, könnte sich diese Voreingenommenheit in ihrer Programmierung widerspiegeln, und dies wird ein tief verwurzeltes Merkmal sein Die tief trainierte Maschine wird keine Einsicht haben und auf der Grundlage dieser fehlerhaften Programmierung auswählen.

Es kann nicht einmal voreingenommen sein, es könnte nur Vergesslichkeit sein, wie es bei den Frauen passiert ist, die ein Fahrrad über eine Straße schieben, ohne ein trainiertes Bild zu sein.

Wenn derzeit ein Manager, der diese Art von Person mag, merkt, dass es keine Frauen gibt, die dieser Beschreibung in der Werkstatt entsprechen, muss er oder sie es aufsaugen oder alles schließen und zur Umschulung zurückschicken.

AKIDA hingegen ermöglicht die Personalisierung des Geräts, sodass der Manager, nachdem er diese Anomalie bemerkt hat, ein paar Fotos aufnimmt und mit One-Shot-Learning dieses fehlende Profil hinzufügt.

Auch das Problem der Vergesslichkeit wird auf diese Weise gelöst - aber AKIDA identifiziert Objekte nicht als Ganzes, sondern sucht nach genügend Ähnlichkeitspunkten, um zu sagen, dass es sich um eine Person handelt, unabhängig davon, ob sie ein Fahrrad schiebt oder mittendrin nackt auf dem Kopf steht die Straße.

In beiden Szenarien ermöglicht On-Chip-Lernen die Berücksichtigung und Lösung menschlicher Gebrechlichkeit.

AKIDA berücksichtigt die Tatsache, dass Menschen nicht perfekt sind und Fehler machen, die möglicherweise spontan korrigiert werden müssen.

Meine Meinung nur DYOR
