During this rapid growth of this area, more and more companies have expressed a desire to utilize machine learning techniques in smaller devices, such as cell phones or smart Internet of Things (IoT) instruments. However, as machine learning has so far required a power source with more capacity and higher efficiency than a conventional battery. Therefore, introducing neural network accelerators with low energy demands and low latency for executing machine learning techniques has drawn lots of attention in both the academia and industry.en-USAttribution-ShareAlike 3.0 United StatesNeural networksA CNN/MLP Neural Processing Engine, Powered by Novel Temporal-Carry-deferring MACsTechnical Report
