Facilitating deep learning techniques with HPEC
The long-sought era of machine learning in finally at hand. The potential benefit to the warfighter of deep learning techniques both enormous and profound. With defense systems trending towards greater application autonomy, deep learning techniques too complex to implement with more traditional processing technologies can now help to significantly drive advancements in on-platform processing of streaming signal or image data. These techniques are proving useful for pattern recognition tasks such as natural language processing and image feature detection, producing highly reliable autonomous decisions based on huge data sets. Accelerating deep learning’s application for defense systems are available technologies — the number crunching capabilities of the latest very large FPGAs, power-efficient graphics processor units (GPUs), and advanced SIMD [single instruction, multiple data] processing units tied to flexible multi-core processors. By surpassing…
