Natural Language Processing Accelerator for Transformer Models
Song Han, Anantha Chandrakasan
This project aims to develop efficient processors for natural language processing directly on an edge device to ensure privacy, low latency and extended battery life. The goal is to accelerate the entire transformer model (as opposed to just the attention mechanism) to reduce data movement across layers.
