Arm's Neil Burgess and Sangwon Ha explain why they've joined Intel and Nvidia in proposing a new 8-bit floating point specification to enable neural network models developed on one platform to be run on other platforms without encountering the overhead of having to convert the vast amounts of model data between formats while reducing task loss to a minimum. Synopsys' Manuel Mota examines ver... » read more

Why Geofencing Will Enable L5
By Marie C. Baca - 19 Sep, 2022 - Comments: 1

What will it take for a car to be able to drive itself anywhere a human can? Ask autonomous vehicle experts this question and the answer invariably includes a discussion of geofencing. In the broadest sense, geofencing is simply a virtual boundary around a physical area. In the world of self-driving cars, it describes a crucial subset of the operational design domain — the geographic regio... » read more
