Abstract

Hyper-Dimensional Computing (HDC) is an efficient learning paradigm inspired by the high-dimensional properties of human brain. However, existing HDC architectures require large storage overhead to store position and level hyper-vectors, increasing the chip area while also limiting the expansion of dimensions. To solve this problem, we propose a lightweight HDC architecture with Zero Rom overhead, named as ZRHDC. Utilizing a novel parallel encoding method and a rapid random vector generation mechanism based on Linear Feedback Shift Register and shift-flip operations, ZRHDC accelerates encoding process and completely eliminates the ROM overhead. The proposed architecture supports classification tasks with up to 32 categories, 1024 features and 8192 dimensions, achieving 2- $8 \times $ dimensional expansion compared to the state-of-the-art ASIC designs and accuracy improvement in various tasks and training strategies. Moreover, our chip only costs 0.66mm2 at 55nm, achieving 3- $6 \times $ area scaling down. Simulation results show that it consumes 0.771mW when performing the EMG hand-gesture recognition task and merely 0.009mW in standby.
ZRHDC:一个轻量级的HDC架构,零ROM开销
HDC (Hyper-Dimensional Computing)是一种受人脑高维特性启发的高效学习范式。然而,现有的HDC架构需要大量的存储开销来存储位置和水平超向量,这增加了芯片面积,同时也限制了尺寸的扩展。为了解决这个问题,我们提出了一个零Rom开销的轻量级HDC架构,命名为ZRHDC。利用一种新颖的并行编码方法和基于线性反馈移位寄存器和移位翻转操作的快速随机向量生成机制,ZRHDC加速了编码过程,完全消除了ROM开销。拟议的架构支持多达32个类别,1024个特征和8192个维度的分类任务,与最先进的ASIC设计相比,实现了2- 8倍的维度扩展,并提高了各种任务和训练策略的准确性。此外,我们的芯片在55nm的成本仅为0.66mm2,实现了3- 6美元的面积缩小。仿真结果表明,该方法在执行肌电手势识别任务时功耗为0.771mW,待机时功耗仅为0.009mW。
