FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE No. 3176
Improved real-time processing and reduced costs will expand opportunities for AI deployment in home appliances, elevators, high-precision maps and more
TOKYO, February 14, 2018 - Mitsubishi Electric Corporation (TOKYO: 6503) announced today it has developed a compact hardware artificial intelligence (AI) technology that can be implemented on small-scale field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) that users and designers can configure to develop tailored applications. Mitsubishi Electric leveraged its Maisart*-brand AI technology to achieve a solution that uses a highly efficient calculation order and optimized circuit architecture for improved real-time processing and reduced costs, which is expected to expand the scope of AI deployment in home appliances, elevators, high-precision maps and more.
* Mitsubishi Electric's AI creates the State-of-the-ART in Technology
Processing time on the same scale FPGA | FPGA scale required for the same level inference | Bands/standards | |
---|---|---|---|
Proposed | Compact AI on FPGA | Short(1/10th of conventional time**) | 3 |
Conventional Technology | 12 dB | 35% | 1 |
