Abstract: Video or graphics, received by a render engine within a graphics processing unit, may be segmented into a region of interest such as foreground and a region of less interest such as background. In other embodiments, an object of interest may be segmented from the rest of the depiction in a case of a video game or graphics processing workload. Each of the segmented portions of a frame may themselves make up a separate surface which is sent separately from the render engine to the display engine of a graphics processing unit. In one embodiment, the display engine combines the two surfaces and sends them over a display link to a display panel. The display controller in the display panel displays the combined frame. The combined frame is stored in a buffer and refreshed periodically. In accordance with another embodiment, video or graphics may be segmented by a render engine into regions of interest or objects of interest and objects not of interest and again each of the separate regions or objects may be transferred to the display engine as a separate surface. Then the display engine may transfer the separate surfaces to a display controller of a display panel over a display link. At the display panel, a separate frame buffer may be used for each of the separate surfaces.

Abstract: Embodiments provide systems and methods which facilitate optimization of a convolutional neural network (CNN). One embodiment provides for a non-transitory machine-readable medium storing instructions that cause one or more processors to perform operations comprising processing a trained convolutional neural network (CNN) to generate a processed CNN, the trained CNN having weights in a floating-point format. Processing the trained CNN includes quantizing the weights in the floating-point format to generate weights in an integer format. Quantizing the weights includes generating a quantization table to enable non-uniform quantization of the weights and quantizing the weights from the floating-point format to the integer format using the quantization table. The operations additionally comprise performing an inference operation utilizing the processed CNN with the integer format weights.

Abstract: Examples are described here that can be used to allocate commands from multiple sources to performance by one or more segments of a processing device. For example, a processing device can be segmented into multiple portions and each portion is allocated to process commands from a particular source. In the event a single source provides commands, the entire processing device (all segments) can be allocated to process commands from the single source. When a second source provides commands, some segments can be allocated to perform commands from the first source and other segments can be allocated to perform commands from the second source. Accordingly, commands from multiple applications can be executed by a processing unit at the same time.

Abstract: An apparatus to facilitate thread scheduling is disclosed. In one embodiment the apparatus includes a processor comprising a plurality of multiprocessors comprising single-instruction multiple thread (SIMT) execution circuitry to simultaneously execute multiple threads, a shared local memory to be shared by the multiple threads, and scheduling hardware logic to schedule the multiple threads in a thread group for execution across the plurality of multiprocessors in accordance with barrier data. The instructions of the multiple threads are to produce shared data to be stored in the shared local memory when executed by the plurality of multiprocessors, wherein additional instructions of at least a first thread of the multiple threads are to use the shared data, and wherein, in accordance with the barrier data, the first thread is to wait for other threads of the multiple threads to finish producing the shared data before executing the additional instructions.
