Toward Autonomous Farming


While the automotive industry works diligently towards self-driving vehicles, it's possible the carrots you've eaten recently were semi-autonomously planted and harvested with Case IH equipment by Bolthouse Farms, one of the largest carrot growers in the United States. And the U.S. is hardly alone. Autonomous agriculture is coming everywhere, and it's happening much faster than autonomous ca... » read more

Finding And Fixing ML’s Flaws


OneSpin CEO Raik Brinkmann sat down with Semiconductor Engineering to discuss how to make machine learning more robust, predictable and consistent, and new ways to identify and fix problems that may crop up as these systems are deployed. What follows are excerpts of that conversation. SE: How do we make sure devices developed with machine learning behave as they're supposed to, and how do we... » read more

Why Your FPGA Synthesis Flow Requires Verification


When you think about it, logic synthesis is a vital but rather intimidating part of modern chip design. This process takes a high-level description of intended functionality, written in an RTL language that looks more like software than hardware, and implements it using the low-level building-block library of an ASIC or FPGA device. The resulting gate-level netlist must meet a variety of requir... » read more
