Abstract
Deep neural networks (DNNs) are revolutionizing computing, necessitating an integrated approach across the computing stack to optimize efficiency. In this talk, I will explore the frontier of DNN optimization, spanning algorithms, software, and hardware. We'll start with hardware-aware neural architecture search, demonstrating how tailoring DNN architectures to specific hardware can drastically enhance performance. I'll then delve into the intricacies of DNN-hardware codesign, revealing how this synergy leads to cutting-edge hardware accelerator architectures. Finally, we'll venture into system-level strategies, including automated DNN partitioning and holistic server design, setting the stage for efficiency in the era of large-scale DNNs. This talk aims to shed light on the pivotal role of codesign in unleashing the full potential of next-generation DNNs, paving the way for continued breakthroughs in deep learning.
