See it to Place it: Evolving Macro Placements with Vision-Language Models
Ikechukwu Uchendu, Swati Goel, Karly Hou +5
We propose using Vision-Language Models (VLMs) for macro placement in chip floorplanning, a complex optimization task that has recently shown promising advancements through machine…
A2Perf: Real-World Autonomous Agents Benchmark
Ikechukwu Uchendu, Jason Jabbour, Korneel Van den Berghe +15
Autonomous agents and systems cover a number of application areas, from robotics and digital assistants to combinatorial optimization, all sharing common, unresolved research chall…
Delving into Macro Placement with Reinforcement Learning
Zixuan Jiang, Ebrahim Songhori, Shen Wang +5
In physical design, human designers typically place macros via trial and error, which is a Markov decision process. Reinforcement learning (RL) methods have demonstrated superhuman…
A Full-Stack Search Technique for Domain Optimized Deep Learning Accelerators
Dan Zhang, Safeen Huda, Ebrahim Songhori +4
The rapidly-changing deep learning landscape presents a unique opportunity for building inference accelerators optimized for specific datacenter-scale workloads. We propose Full-st…
Chip Placement with Deep Reinforcement Learning
Azalia Mirhoseini, Anna Goldie, Mustafa Yazgan +19
In this work, we present a learning-based approach to chip placement, one of the most complex and time-consuming stages of the chip design process. Unlike prior methods, our approa…
