A Review on AI Chip Design
In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have been widely used in many business areas. With the attention and investment of scientific researchers and research companies around the world, artificial intelligence technologies have proven their irreplaceable value in traditional speech recognition, image recognition, search/recommendation engines, and other areas. At the same time, however, the computational effort for artificial intelligence technologies is increasing dramatically, posing a huge challenge to the computing power of hardware devices. First, in this paper, we describe the direction of AI chip technology development, including the technical shortcomings of existing AI chips. So, we present the directions of AI chip development in recent years
USING MACHINE LEARNING TO OPTIMIZE PREDICTIVE MODELS USED FOR BIG DATA ANALYTICS IN VARIOUS SPORTS EVENTS
In today’s world, data is growing in huge volume and type day by day. Historical data can hence be leveraged to predict the likelihood of the events which are to occur in the future. This process of using statistical or any other form of data to predict future outcomes is commonly termed as predictive modelling. Predictive modelling is becoming more and more important and is trending because of several reasons. But mainly, it enables businesses or individual users to gain accurate insights and allows to decide suitable actions for a profitable outcome.
Machine learning techniques are generally used in order to build these predictive models. Examples of machine learning models ranges from time-series-based regression models which can be used for predicting volume of airline related traffic and linear regression-based models which can be used for predicting fuel efficiency. There are many domains which can gain competitive advantage by using predictive modelling with machine learning. Few of these domains include, but are not limited to, banking and financial services, retail, insurance, fraud detection, stock market analysis, sentimental analysis etc.
In this research project, predictive analysis is used for the sports domain. It’s an upcoming domain where machine learning can help make better predictions. There are numerous sports events happening around the globe every day and the data gathered from these events can very well be used for predicting as well as improving the future events. In this project, machine learning with statistics would be used to perform quantitative and predictive analysis of dataset related to soccer. Comparisons of these models to see how effectively the models are is also presented. Also, few big data tools and techniques are used in order to optimize these predictive models and increase their accuracy to over 90%
AI/ML Algorithms and Applications in VLSI Design and Technology
An evident challenge ahead for the integrated circuit (IC) industry in the
nanometer regime is the investigation and development of methods that can
reduce the design complexity ensuing from growing process variations and
curtail the turnaround time of chip manufacturing. Conventional methodologies
employed for such tasks are largely manual; thus, time-consuming and
resource-intensive. In contrast, the unique learning strategies of artificial
intelligence (AI) provide numerous exciting automated approaches for handling
complex and data-intensive tasks in very-large-scale integration (VLSI) design
and testing. Employing AI and machine learning (ML) algorithms in VLSI design
and manufacturing reduces the time and effort for understanding and processing
the data within and across different abstraction levels via automated learning
algorithms. It, in turn, improves the IC yield and reduces the manufacturing
turnaround time. This paper thoroughly reviews the AI/ML automated approaches
introduced in the past towards VLSI design and manufacturing. Moreover, we
discuss the scope of AI/ML applications in the future at various abstraction
levels to revolutionize the field of VLSI design, aiming for high-speed, highly
intelligent, and efficient implementations

Nonlinear opinion models and other networked systems
Networks play a critical role in many physical, biological, and social systems. In this thesis, we investigate tools to model and analyze networked systems. We first examine some of the ways in which we can model social dynamics that take place on networks. We then study two recently developed data-analysis methods that employ a network framework and explore new ways in which they can be used to find meaningful signals in large data sets. In the first half of the thesis, we study opinion dynamics on networks. We begin by examining a class of opinion models, known as coevolving voter models (CVM), that couple the mechanisms of opinion formation and changing social connections. We then propose a version of CVMs that incorporates nonlinearity. In our models, we assume that individuals strive to achieve harmony and avoid disagreement, both by changing their social connections to reflect their opinions and by changing their opinions to reflect their social connections. By taking a minimalist approach to modeling social dynamics, we hope to gain a deeper understanding of how these two mechanisms can give rise to social phenomena such as the ``majority illusion''. Comparing several versions of CVMs, we find that seemingly small changes in update rules can lead to strikingly different behaviors. A particularly interesting feature of our nonlinear CVMs is that, under certain conditions, the opinion state that is held initially by a minority of the nodes can effectively spread to almost every node in a network if the minority nodes view themselves as the majority. We then discuss an ongoing project that involves another class of opinion models called bounded-confidence models. Specifically, we examine extensions of bounded-confidence models on hypergraphs and discuss some preliminary findings. In the second half of the thesis, we study problems in data analysis. We begin by considering topological structures as a tool to study integrated circuit (IC) devices. In particular, we examine a problem in the design and manufacturing of IC devices using topological data analysis (TDA), which is based on network structures called simplicial complexes. Failures in IC devices generally occur near the tolerance limits of photolithography systems, such as at the minimum separation distance between adjacent electronic components. However, for complex arrangements of electronic components, simply ensuring minimal separation is insufficient to guarantee that one can manufacture an IC design accurately and reliably. We apply tools from TDA to compare data from IC designs. Without inputting domain knowledge, we are able to infer several results about the IC design-manufacturing process. Finally, we discuss an ongoing project in the analysis of network data. Specifically, we explore applications of a recently developed algorithm called network dictionary learning (NDL) and discuss problems of network reconstruction and denoising using NDL on both synthetic and real-world networks
