Title: Error allocation format selection for hardware implementation of deep neutral network
Inventor: JAMES IMBER
IPC: G06N3/063
Filed: 2017-11-03
Abstract: Determining a fixed point format for one or more layers of a DNN based on the portion of the output error of the DNN attributed to the fixed point formats of the different layers. Specifically, the output error of a DNN attributable to the quantisation of the weights or input data values of each layer is determined using a Taylor approximation and the fixed point number format of one or more layers is adjusted based on the attribution. For example, where the fixed point number formats used by a DNN comprises an exponent and a mantissa bit length, the mantissa bit length of the layer allocated the lowest portion of the output error may be reduced, or the mantissa bit length of the layer allocated the highest portion of the output error may be increased. Such a method may be iteratively repeated to determine an optimum set of fixed point number formats for the layers of a DNN.

Title: Display interference mitigation systems and methods
Inventor: RUI ZHANG
IPC: G09G3/20
Filed: 2017-10-03
Abstract: Aspects of the subject technology relate to electronic devices with displays. A display may include an array of display pixels and control circuitry for operating the display. In some scenarios, interference signals from other components of the electronic device or additional external devices can couple to the control circuitry for the display and cause distortions in displayed data. Display frames may be displayed by an electronic device display with a varying phase. The varying phase display frames may each include a distortion pattern that also varies from frame to frame due to the varying phase. The varying distortion patterns may average out or visibly cancel when viewed by a user such that no visible artifact of the interference signal is seen by the user. The varying phase can be actively tuned to the interference signal if desired.
