BRN Discussion Ongoing

[7für7]

In the automotive sector, similar standards apply as in other safety-critical industries, but there are also specific requirements that must be considered. The most important certifications and standards include:

ISO 26262: This standard is specifically for the functional safety of electrical and electronic systems in road vehicles. ASIL Classification: According to ISO 26262, systems and components are classified according to their Automotive Safety Integrity Level (ASIL) to assess the risk of hazards and take appropriate risk reduction measures. IATF 16949: This standard defines requirements for a quality management system for the automotive industry and also considers aspects of product safety. ISO 9001: A quality management system that sets out general requirements for quality management practices and is relevant to the automotive industry. Cybersecurity: With the increasing connectivity of vehicles and the introduction of autonomous driving, cybersecurity in the automotive sector is also becoming increasingly important. Standards such as ISO/SAE 21434 and UN-R155 may be relevant here.

These certifications and standards are important to ensure that AI chips and systems in the automotive sector operate safely and reliably.

All I want to say is, there are more factors if you want to implement a new technology into a car etc. you need certifications

Yet another solid engagement announced today with UWA joining our University Accelerator Program, Perth had to join, with Peter, Adam,
so many of our Perth staff having studied there, our links through Pia, Barry and Alan it was just a matter of time until all the checks and
balances had been satisfied by both parties.

I am aware that other Australian Universities have shown interest in joining the program, but I'm not privy to which ones, but to be totally
honest, you don't have to be Einstein to know which Universities excel in Computer Science, just ask ANT61 !

7 in total now and things just keep expanding, I wonder why ?

Yes it still seems very slow, but no major companies would have anything to do with a small start-up like us if we didn't have the KEYS TO THE KINGDOM....2 steps forward, one back, 2 steps forward, one back is still progress.... the Brain is slowly delivering in my opinion.

Best.....Tech

 

[CHIPS]

Thank me for that.
Reason.
I'm going with Fact Finder back to hot crapper.
And when I go, so do my posts. (all 250+ of them)

This should be forbidden. It is not only very childish ... I don't play with you anymore and take all my pictures with me ... but also as stupid as one can be. Grow up and behave like an adult! You and Fact Finder have not only given information but also taken some from other people. So there is no reason to take some away. I cannot believe how someone can behave like that.

Yes. We've discussed certification in detail a long time ago.

Akida 1 has been in Mercedes hands for long enough, but as I said, Akida 2 will take a bit longer.

Tenstorrent and MosChip Partner on High Performant RISC-V Design

Tenstorrent and MosChip Technologies announced that they are partnering on design for Tenstorrent’s cutting-edge RISC-V solutions.

Looks like the task has breached its assigned limits, and effective and immediate communication with the work team has terminated.

But MosChip certainly is, Jim must be yet to come out of the spike closet I'd say......

Give it time, he'll come around.

Opinion only, Dyor.

My feeling is that a company that goes to all the trouble to create their own OS will want to own their own chip. ie We should expect M-B to announce the license deal with us at the time they announce that we are the third chip partner.

As far as the $s go I think Note 2[q] of the Annual Report says something like we'll be happy to defer the payments for licensees to fit in with their revenue stream from using Akida.

If that is correct, I cannot see any reason why we should have to bend over that far in the future

For heavens sake , do not involve FF at the same standing as that nitwit . It shows that you do not have very good judgment or respect for our messiah.

 

[Iseki]

Well not even NVIDIA make their own chips, so M-B would have to go off to a chip designer and tell them that they want something that can run Akida IP and talk directly to an NVIDIA chip, all using MB.OS, so a chip that no one else can use!, and we need to tape it out and queue up at somewhere like TSMC and test the bjesus out of it, and then take it to the M-B BoD and hope they give the go ahead! And then and only then make that fateful call to Sean, and utter these words "Sean, baby, please use the following Order Number MB-Neuromorphic-001"

 

[Diogenese]

Ok but you actually all know what I mean with “they need certificates”? Yes? Because I have the feeling maybe you don’t know what I mean with this

Some years ago PvdM said BRN would leave the qualification of Akida to the end users.

 

[cosors]

You mean something like this.

I just wonder how many days it would take me to delete all my 3123 posts especially in the small Talga group

Yes. That’s why I say. Until they (the customers) do not have a certification, they can not go into mass production

NVIDIA Drive Thor uses updated ARM Poseidon AE cores and AKIDA is compatible with Arm's product families. Just a thought bubble.

Remember also NVIDIA is needed for driving the video images on the vast number of displays. Akida can focus on the AI side

 

[Fullmoonfever]

I don't recall this posted from mid last year?

Seems that this institute (pretty big research team and connected) have been playing with Akida Gen 1 amongst the other usual suspects of NVIDIA, Intel, Xilinx.

Now they just need Gen 2.

Is a presentation and some challenges via Think Project but I haven't dug into as just on ph and other stuff going on.

Snipped some pages relevant to us.

Maybe @Diogenese can pull some of the technical aspects out?

Hi Fmf,

This is the premier nuclear research organization in France - the greatest concentration of baguettes, berets and boffins on earth.

IN2P3 is the French umbrella organization for nuclear and particle physics research and works with CERN where they found Higgs.

On slide 32, Akida got excellent marks for CH1, Ch3, and Ch5, but only a B- for Ch 4 (circles) (see Slide 14). I'm guessing that these are radiation patterns from particle collision sensors - something like a DVS Geiger counter. One possible reason for this that I can think of is that the model/weights CNN2SNN conversion was dodgy, although the boffins attribute it to the 4-bit quantization, which seems wrong to me. Properly trained (model/weights) Akida could pick a circle from the largest geometric menagerie.

I wonder if there was a BRN engineer helping the boffins with the PCIe board?

In any case, they have still to savour the delights of Akida 2.

FN: The file size for challenge 4 is much larger than for the others (Slide 36). These files would be for Intel and they are not converted to SNN.
