China's AI Analog Chip Claimed To Be 3.7X Faster Than Nvidia's A100 GPU in Computer Vision Tasks | Tom's Hardware
Description
Summary drafted by a large language model.
Tsinghua University's new AI processing chip, ACCEL, demonstrates superior performance compared to Nvidia's A100 GPU in computer vision tasks, according to a recent paper published in Nature. The analog chip focuses on vision tasks and leverages photonic and analog computing in a unique architecture that delivers over 3.7 times the performance of the A100 in an image classification workload. ACCEL boasts a systemic energy efficiency of 74.8 peta-operations per second per watt, making it a promising alternative to digital chips for specific applications.
