Abstract: A spiking neural network (SNN) is implemented on a neuromorphic computers and includes a plurality of neurons, a first set of the plurality of synapses defining feed-forward connections from a first subset of the neurons to a second subset of the neurons, a second subset of the plurality of synapses to define recurrent connections between the second subset of neurons, and a third subset of the plurality of synapses to define feedback connections from the second subset of neurons to the first subset of neurons. A set of input vectors are provided to iteratively modify weight values of the plurality of synapses. Each iteration involves selectively enabling and disabling the third subset of synapses with a different one of the input vectors applied to the SNN. The weight values are iteratively adjusted to derive a solution to an equation comprising an unknown matrix variable and an unknown vector variable.

Abstract: Implementations of the disclosure provide a processing device comprising a branch predictor circuit to obtain a branch history for an application. The branch history comprising references to branching instructions associated with the application and an outcome of executing each branch. Using the branch history, a neutral network is trained to produce a weighted value for each branch of the branching instructions. Features of the branching instructions are identified based on the weighted values. Each feature identifying predictive information regarding the outcome of at least one branch of correlated branches having corresponding outcomes. A feature vector is determined based on the features. The feature vector comprises a plurality of data fields that identify an occurrence of a corresponding feature of the correlated branches with respect to the branch history. Using the feature vector, a data model is produced to determine a predicted outcome associated with the correlated branches.

Abstract: A mechanism is described for facilitating intelligent thread scheduling at autonomous machines. A method of embodiments, as described herein, includes detecting dependency information relating to a plurality of threads corresponding to a plurality of workloads associated with tasks relating to a processor including a graphics processor. The method may further include generating a tree of thread groups based on the dependency information, where each thread group includes multiple threads, and scheduling one or more of the thread groups associated a similar dependency to avoid dependency conflicts.
