Presenter: Jason Yik, PhD Candidate, Harvard SEAS Description: Recent research on neuromorphic accelerators has investigated their efficiency and performance benefits for machine learning (ML) inference at the edge. This talk will focus on the performance implications of the fully-on-chip, manycore-distributed memory architecture used by current neuromorphic accelerators. In conventional architectures, the roofline model is a […]

These schemes often are designed to learn both the population-level functional structures shared by the subjects and the functional characteristics specific […]
Presenter: Ms. Catherine Blume, University of Colorado-Boulder Description: Recent observations of Rossby waves and other inertial oscillations in the Sun’s convection zone have kindled the hope that such waves might be used as a seismic probe of the Sun’s interior. Here, we present a 3D numerical simulation in spherical geometry that models the Sun’s convection […]
