Project Brainwave boasts ultra-low latency, thanks to clever technology from Intel.<\/b>
\nIn a bid to make artificial intelligence more accessible all-round, Microsoft has kicked off a new project which delivers real-time AI via the cloud, utilizing some nifty technology from Intel. artificial intelligence
Project Brainwave is described by Microsoft as a deep learning acceleration platform which employs Intel\u2019s Stratix 10 FPGA (field programmable gate array) hardware accelerator to run AI through the cloud and still deliver near-instant results. Stratix 10
The system is capable of processing and transmitting data with \u2018ultra-low latency\u2019 , delivering results as fast as that data comes in, and so effectively operating in real-time. And that\u2019s a clear boon for the sort of applications that need this, from digital assistants through to the likes of autonomous driving. digital assistants
The system has already shown that Intel\u2019s Stratix 10 tech can exceed 39 Teraflops in terms of performance on a single request.
Microsoft engineer Doug Burger notes: \u201cAt that level of performance, the Brainwave architecture sustains execution of over 130,000 compute operations per cycle, driven by one macro-instruction being issued each 10 cycles. notes
\u201cRunning on Stratix 10, Project Brainwave thus achieves unprecedented levels of demonstrated real-time AI performance on extremely challenging models.\u201d
And further gains are expected as Microsoft hones the system over the next year or so.
Project Brainwave supports deep learning frameworks including Microsoft\u2019s own Cognitive Toolkit and Google\u2019s Tensorflow, and the firm is planning to bring it to Azure customers as well.
Powerful real-time AI processing capabilities on tap will be another major string to Azure\u2019s bow, for sure.
Microsoft is also busy setting new industry benchmarks when it comes to speech recognition, and that means we should see sharper performance from the firm\u2019s own digital assistant Cortana in the future (not to mention Windows 10\u2019s built-in voice recognition) . busy setting new industry benchmarks Windows 10\u2019s built-in voice recognition Cortana can be found on some of our best laptops of 2017 best laptops
