Fast DNN Accelerator Design Space Exploration Frameworks

ZigZag targets rapid DSE for DNN accelerator platforms supporting an broad set of hardware architectures and workload scheduling scenarios beyond other existing frameworks.
The latest version of ZigZag includes support for modeling of analog and digital in-memory computing accelerators and estimating both peak/workload performance at the macro and system level.

Stream is an extension of ZigZag capable of modeling multi-core DNN acceleration employing fine-grained layer-fused processing.

DeFiNes Repo

DeFiNes extends ZigZag to enable the DSE of cross-layer depth-first scheduling (a.k.a. layer fusion, or cascaded execution)

Accelerator-aware Neural Network Deployment

HTVM Repo

HTVM is a neural network compiler based on Dory and TVM that allows for efficient neural network deployment on heterogenous TinyML platforms with scratchpad-memory accelerators.
