研究簡介:
Dr. Hsiu’s research goal is to realize Intermittent Artificial of Things (iAIoT), enabling battery-less IoT devices to intermittently execute deep neural networks (DNN) via ambient power. iAIoT is a novel research direction at the intersection of intermittent computing and deep learning. He has led a research team to release a suite of system runtime and libraries, facilitating AI and IoT application developers to easily build low cost, intermittent-aware inference systems. In particular, an intermittent operating system (TCAD’20), which was the first attempt to allow multitasking and task concurrency on intermittent systems, makes complicated intermittent applications increasingly possible. The HAWAII middleware (TCAD’20), which comprises an inference engine and API library, enables hardware accelerated intermittent DNN inference, while the iNAS framework (TECS’21) was the first framework that introduces intermittent execution behavior into neural architecture search to automatically find intermittently-executable DNN models. A solar-powered image classification system was developed with our intermittent system runtime and inference library as an example: https://youtu.be/n6lEAjmn0Ng .
