PICopilot: An LLM-based Agentic Framework for Assisting Photonic Integrated Circuit Design via Script Generation
Xiaohan Jiang, Zeyu Li, Wei Zhang +1
The rapid development of photonic integrated circuits (PICs) is shifting the design flow from traditional graphical user interface (GUI)-based methods to script-based methods for h…
Sparse by Command: Task-Conditional Compute Skipping for Multi-Task Inference Accelerators
Afzal Ahmad, Gaoyu Mao, Shoubo Hu +4
Multi-task inference models share a single backbone across diverse tasks, yet execute identical computation regardless of which task is active - wasting energy and cycles on task-i…
FPGN: Redefining Ultra-Fast Programmable Gate-based Neural Acceleration with Differentiable LUTs
Jiawei Liang, Haotong Qin, Linfeng Du +7
Achieving nanosecond-scale inference latency for deep neural networks (DNNs) has become a primary architectural concern for latency-critical applications. While Field-Programmable…
HiFuzz: Hierarchical Reinforcement Learning for Semantic-Aware and Adaptive CPU Fuzzing
Ya Wang, Hanwei Fan, Zhenguo Liu +4
Modern processor verification struggles to reach deep architectural states due to the inefficiencies of traditional mutation-based fuzzing. We propose HiFuzz, a novel hierarchical…
