Descrizione Apache TVM is an open-source compiler for deep learning learning, able to automatically translate high-level models of a Deep Neural Network (e.g. in TensorFlow or Pytorch) to optimized machine code for a given hardware, with backend support for GPUs, CPUs, and various types of customized accelerators. Recently, the uTVM project has extended TVM support to embedded systems and low-power microcontrollers. In particular, many devices based on ARM architectures are currently supported by uTVM, which achieves comparable performance to proprietary toolchains with a reduced effort for the programmer, thanks to automation.
The goal of this thesis is to extend uTVM support to embedded platforms based on the open source RISC-V instruction set. In particular, the final result of the work will be the automatic deployment, through uTVM, of complex deep learning architectures on a commercial multi-core platform based on RISC-V, and the comparison of the resulting binary performance with the ones obtained with platform-specific tools.
