Dan Fleisch briefly explains some vector and tensor concepts from A Student’s Guide to Vectors and Tensors. In the field of machine learning, tensors are used as representations for many applications, ...

TPUs are Google’s specialized ASICs built exclusively for accelerating tensor-heavy matrix multiplication used in deep learning models. TPUs use vast parallelism and matrix multiply units (MXUs) to ...

A custom-built AI chip from Google. Introduced in 2016 and used in Google Cloud datacenters, the Tensor Processing Unit (TPU) is designed for matrix multiplication, which is the type of processing ...

There are central processing units (CPUs), graphics processing units (GPUs) and even data processing units (DPUs) – all of which are well-known and commonplace now. GPUs in particular have seen a ...

Zhonghao Xinying was founded in 2018 by Yanggong Yifan, a Stanford and University of Michigan-trained electrical engineer Chinese AI chip start-up Zhonghao Xinying has emerged as a home-grown ...

Scientists in China have developed a tensor processing unit (TPU) that uses carbon-based transistors instead of silicon – and they say it's extremely energy efficient. AI models are hugely ...

Rick Osterloh casually dropped his laptop onto the couch and leaned back, satisfied. It's not a mic, but the effect is about the same. Google's chief of hardware had just shown me a demo of the ...
