Hmmmm could this be little chipper

Here's an ARM patent application from mid-2020 which converts CNN for matrix multiplication on a CPU!!!??? Plenty of scope to boost performance by incorporating a SNN. After all, they do envisage a hardware accelerator processing engine or specialized hardware, which may provide some hitherto unknown (to ARM) power/speed advantages.

US2021390367A1 Hardware Accelerator For IM2COL Operation

Applicants: ADVANCED RISC MACH LTD [GB]​

Priorities: US202016901542A·2020-06-15​

one or more processors, coprocessors, processing engines (PEs), compute engines (CEs), etc., such as, for example, CPUs, GPUs, NPUs (e.g., the ARM ML Processor), DSPs, field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs), application specific integrated circuits (ASICs), controllers, microcontrollers, matrix multiplier circuits, MAC arrays, etc.


[0002] Artificial neural networks (ANNs), such as deep neural networks (DNNs), convolutional neural networks (CNNs), etc., are a popular solution to a wide array of challenging classification, recognition and regression problems. However, many ANN models require a large number of calculations involving a large number of weights and activations, which presents a significant challenge with respect to access, storage and performance, particularly for mobile and other power or storage-constrained devices. An ANN hardware accelerator accelerates these calculations, such as, for example, convolution operations performed by CNNs.


[0003] Typically, native convolution operations are not performed by a CNN due to the complicated dataflow and expensive datapaths that are usually required. Instead, native convolution operations are converted into generic matrix multiplication (GEMM) operations, and then the GEMM operations are executed more efficiently by a central processing unit (CPU), specialized processor, hardware accelerator processing engine, etc., using optimized software libraries or specialized hardware. More particularly, an “IM2COL” software function is used to convert the filter (weight) matrix and the input feature map (IFM) matrix for each convolution operation into an expanded format that is compatible with a GEMM operation. The IM2COL versions of each filter (weight) matrix and each IFM matrix are generated and stored in memory, and then loaded from memory and processed by the GEMM operation.


https://iq.opengenus.org/im2col/
Im2col stands for Image to Column and is an implementation technique of computing Convolution operation (in Machine Learning) using GEMM operations. This is a preferred way of computing Convolution as GEMM operations from BLAS and BLIS libraries are optimized for specific hardware platforms and performs well in practice.

 

[Earlyrelease]

All.
I would like to apologise for todays 2.64%fall in SP. Having wizzed up to Kununurra and taken the opportunity to have a walk at Emma Gorge at El Questro with a work colleague I took advantage of the 1 hr drive home to share the rich learnings of the TSE team to encourage this young recently family man to buy a small parcel of shares to start his share investment portfolio and learn from an old dog.
Well as has always been my luck the minute a referral buys some shares it goes south.
After much reassuring he is a LTH with a staunch vision.

I just need to put my hand up for todays fall.

Blind Freddie thinks he knows why the extra directors are needed. He says it’s to add greater diversity for the purpose of a Nasdaq listing AND to give additional US credibility to the company.

He thinks that the CEO Sean Hehir stating at the AGM that Brainchip was not going to be attached to any one nation but that it was on a global pathway was a strong signal that there is a Nasdaq roadmap laid out on the Brainchip boardroom table.

I don’t know if he is correct but Fact Finder knows that Brainchip can tick off every necessary qualification box for a Nasdaq Listing thanks to the months of hard work of Tony Dawe and Ken Scarince.

When the time is right Blind Freddie says a global company needs to act globally and move to the Nasdaq as the ASX is not big enough to hold it.

In my opinion the move to the Nasdaq will NOT occur until after the next AGM when we have been informed of the matters promised by Sean Hehir regarding commercialisation progress and Brainchip is in a position to start giving earnings guidance.

My opinion and speculation only so DYOR

Dumb question to you pros I’m sure, but if BrainChip were to list on NASDAQ, would they delist from ASX or continue on both? And if it’s the latter, is the global number of BrainChip shares diluted or are there new shares made available for the NAS?

Hey @Bravo can u run yr translation wizard on this please, this one is not french

well at least he bought on a dip. he should be happy @Earlyrelease ( sorry my tagging is playing up )

All ideas, so to speak, are possible until the company announces what they would like to do. Remember if shareholders do not like what is being proposed they can call a special meeting and vote against it. Also remember Peter van der Made, Anil Mankar, Robert Mitro and the Osseirans and many others including Mr. Dinardo have significant stakes in the company and are unlikely to vote for a system that destroyed individual shareholder value.

[Violin1]

Peter, like us, is extremely happy having hired 3 excellent men to lead us deeper into commercialization
Sean, Antonio and Jerome are the future faces of Brainchip, ably supported by Rob, Todd and all the new
sales team staff being scouted as we speak.

One thing I personally hate (dislike) is talk about a takeover, especially this early into our commercial journey,
Sean and the team are really starting to crank things up, with real determination, and I personally believe as a few posters have already commented on, Peter knows his own strengths, he has fulfilled a number of positions within the company, all but the Chairman's position, taking a step back to focus on other passions, is key to a balanced life...when I next get to catch up with him in July I'll ask him a question or two, which he may choose to answer or not, which I have to respect.

You don't have to be a rocket scientist to work out who may have tried to influence the voting by not voting, just check out the top 10 on the register and work towards the front.

The question that I haven't pursued as yet, is this one, which definitely has a message behind it in my opinion,

Why 4 new non-executive directors and potentially a 5th to be hired in the next 12 months ????

You tell me

NO INSIDER KNOWLEDGE....GIVE IT A REST PLEASE.....regards....Tech

Tech - I thought it was to get to 4 and then a 5th NOT additional. Antonio connected this with the increase in Director Remuneration pool which wasn't that much so that supports what I think I heard.

Afternoon Violin1: ,

As you have explained above , is also how I understood what was said at the AGM.

Chip shares turn - Infineon, Nvidia and BrainChip in the next upward wave

Despite the chip shortage that has persisted since last year and the associated booming business of manufacturers, they came under a lot of pressure on the stock market in recent weeks in the wake of the weak overall market. The prospects for the industry remain positive, the semiconductor...

“A newcomer is also making a run for the top again after a lengthy correction phase.”

BRAINCHIP WITH TREND-CONFIRMING CORRECTION​

A correction in the range of 75% tends to confirm the trend, especially for young innovative companies such as the IP company BrainChip. After a price explosion in the last final quarter, which drove the share of the Australian Company from EUR 0.30 to EUR 1.67, a stronger correction then set in. For example, in the middle of last month, the share price gap was closed at EUR 0.62. The relative strength indicator already recorded a buy signal, and the trend-following indicator MACD is close to it. The next price target should be closing a price gap again, this time at the level of EUR 0.98 (AUD 1.46)

BrainChip is the world's first commercial manufacturer of neuromorphic AI chips and, with "Akida", offers, according to the Company's management, "the most efficient AI solution ever produced." The Akida processor is extremely low-power and high-performance, supporting the growth of edge AI technology through the use of neuromorphic architecture, a type of artificial intelligence inspired by the biology of the human brain. With each transaction, Akida thereby learns autonomously, making it suitable for modern edge devices. In addition to autonomous driving, areas of application include robotics, medical diagnostics and security technology.

The recently rising share prices are underpinned by outstanding news. The inclusion of BrainChip in ARM's partner program is equivalent to an accolade. According to the announcement, the British company's partner program is an ecosystem of hardware and software specialists designed to enable developers to create the next generation of AI solutions. Mohamed Awad, vice president of IoT and embedded at ARM, had this to say: "As part of ARM's AI Partner Program, BrainChip will enable developers to address the need for high-performance and ultra-low-power edge AI inference, enabling new innovation opportunities."

Hi, anybody got any idea when Nanose is going to report its trial result? In this tracker it says 30 May? But ai cannot find anything..

I'm sure that has happened to the majority of us.

I told a mate about BRN when it was 20c, and he ummed and ahhed for a couple of weeks then it took off and, inspired by FOMO, he got some in the 80c range before it peaked in the 90s and then fell to the 30's. It was a rough year, but at least he had the fortitude to hold ...
