Work Experience – Dynamic Causal Modeling

What we wanted to Achieve: Throughout my two week work experience placement at Embecosm, I worked on a project to create a dynamical system of a double pendulum. A dynamical system, meaning a system containing objects that are continuously effected by active forces caused as a result of various interacting objects. The system that was […]

Forget ARIMA – Going Bayesian with Time Series Analysis

At Embecosm, we have recently been taking an interest in time series modelling in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic and, in particular, the application of Bayesian methods to these problems. In this blog post, we want to backtrack a bit and talk discuss how the Bayesian approach can fit into time series analysis in […]

Breaking the AI sound barrier with Doctor Syn

Executive Summary The problem facing the AI industry today is that many of the functions at the heart of machine learning processes were written over forty years ago when computer hardware and compiler technology were very different. Our library, Doctor Syn, addresses this problem by using the three technologies of SIMD, multithreading and autovectorisation. We […]

Google Summer of Code: AI support for CORE-V

My Google Summer of Code (GSoC) project builds upon a previous joint project between Embecosm and Southampton University, which recently developed an open source AI/ML ISA extension for a RISC-V core. This project extended a CV32E40P RISC-V core with a vector instruction accelerator to improve performance in neural networks inference. This project produced excellent results, […]

Chiphack for Teens: FOMU

For my two weeks of work experience with Embecosm I was tasked with updating the Chiphack application note (EAN12) to use a different computer board, the Fomu. The end result of my work can be found here. Fomu is a tiny FPGA (field programmable gate array) that fits inside your USB port! An FPGA which […]
