LOW LATENCY INTERRUPT ALERTS FOR ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORK SYSTEMS AND METHODS

Abstract:

Various techniques are provided for providing neural networks with increased efficiency. In one example, a system includes a first artificial neural network (ANN), a second ANN, and a logic device. The first ANN is configured to receive a first plurality of data inputs associated with a data stream and process the first data inputs to generate a first inference output after a first latency. The second ANN is configured to receive a second plurality of data inputs associated with the data stream and process the second data inputs to generate a second inference output after a second latency less than the first latency. The logic device is configured to receive the second inference output before the first inference output is generated. Additional systems and methods are also provided.
