- londons_explore 6y agoFor unusual ML architectures, like 1 bit precision, that might be true. For anything using floating point maths, it isn't true.
- anonymousDan 6y agoWhat about this paper then, section 5.1.2, energy efficiency: https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/2694344.2694347 https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/2694344.2694347 Substantial gains in terms of performance per watt for FPGAs?
