Nemotron 3 Ultra: Open, Efficient Mixture-of-Experts Hybrid Mamba-Transformer Model for Agentic Reasoning
NVIDIA, :, Aaron Blakeman +571
We introduce Nemotron 3 Ultra, a 550 billion total and 55 billion active parameter Mixture-of-Experts Hybrid Mamba-Attention language model. We pre-trained Nemotron 3 Ultra on 20 t…
How LLMs Fail and Generalize in RTL Coding for Hardware Design?
Guan-Ting Liu, Chao-Han Huck Yang, Chenhui Deng +3
Translating sequential programming priors into the parallel temporal logic of hardware design remains a crucial bottleneck for large language models(LLM). To investigate this, we i…
ACE-RTL: When Agentic Context Evolution Meets RTL-Specialized LLMs
Chenhui Deng, Zhongzhi Yu, Guan-Ting Liu +3
Recent advances in LLMs have sparked growing interest in applying them to hardware design automation, particularly for accurate RTL code generation. Prior efforts follow two largel…
GRPO with State Mutations: Improving LLM-Based Hardware Test Plan Generation
Dimple Vijay Kochar, Nathaniel Pinckney, Guan-Ting Liu +4
RTL design often relies heavily on ad-hoc testbench creation early in the design cycle. While large language models (LLMs) show promise for RTL code generation, their ability to re…
ScaleRTL: Scaling LLMs with Reasoning Data and Test-Time Compute for Accurate RTL Code Generation
Chenhui Deng, Yun-Da Tsai, Guan-Ting Liu +2
Recent advances in large language models (LLMs) have enabled near-human performance on software coding benchmarks, but their effectiveness in RTL code generation remains limited du…
