Abstract: L'invention concerne un cœur de traitement de réseau neuronal (NN) nouveau et utile présentant une connectivité inter-dispositifs intégrée et conçu pour permettre la mise en œuvre de réseaux de neurones artificiels (ANN). Une interface puce-à-puce répartit un modèle ANN donné à travers de multiples dispositifs d'une manière continue. Le processeur NN est élaboré à partir d'unités de calcul autonomes organisées selon une architecture hiérarchique. L'homogénéité permet une gestion et une commande plus simples d'unités de calcul similaires, agrégées dans de multiples niveaux de hiérarchie. Des unités de calcul sont conçues pour entraîner des coûts minimaux, des caractéristiques et des capacités supplémentaires étant agrégées à des niveaux plus élevés dans la hiérarchie. La mémoire sur puce permet un stockage pour du contenu requis de manière inhérente pour une opération de base à une hiérarchie particulière et est couplée aux ressources de calcul selon un rapport optimal. La commande minimale permet une signalisation juste suffisante pour ne nécessiter la gestion que des opérations requises à un niveau hiérarchique particulier. Une facilité d'attribution de ressources dynamique est assurée, laquelle peut être ajustée selon les besoins en fonction de la disponibilité des ressources et des capacités du dispositif.

Title: Method and system for aperture expansion in light field displays
Inventor: MAKINEN JUKKA-TAPANI
IPC: H04N13/305
Filed: 2018-10-23
Abstract: Display methods and apparatus are described. In some embodiments, to generate an image, light is selectively emitted from one or more light-emitting elements (such as a µLEDs) in a light-emitting layer. The emitted light from each element is collimated using, for example, an array of microlenses having small apertures. Each beam of collimated light is split by a first diffractive grating into a first generation of child beams, and the first generation of child beams is split by a second diffractive grating into a second generation of child beams. Beams in the second generation of child beams that are not parallel to the original beam of collimated light may be blocked by a spatial light modulator (e.g. an LCD panel). The un-blocked beams operate in some respects as if they had been generated using optics with an aperture larger than the apertures of the microlenses.
