Abstract
ZuSE-KI-Mobil (ZuKIMo) is a nationally funded research project, currently in its intermediate stage. The goal of the ZuKIMo project is to develop a new System-on-Chip (SoC) platform and corresponding ecosystem to enable efficient Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications with specific requirements. With ZuKIMo, we specifically target applications from the mobility domain, i.e. autonomous vehicles and drones. The initial ecosystem is built by a consortium consisting of seven partners from German academia and industry. We develop the SoC platform and its ecosystem around a novel AI accelerator design. The customizable accelerator is conceived from scratch to fulfill the functional and non-functional requirements derived from the ambitious use cases. A tape-out in 22 nm FDX-technology is planned in 2023. Apart from the System-on-Chip hardware design itself, the ZuKIMo ecosystem has the objective of providing software tooling for easy deployment of new use cases and hardware-CNN co-design. Furthermore, AI accelerators in safety-critical applications like our mobility use cases, necessitate the fulfillment of safety requirements. Therefore, we investigate new design methodologies for fault analysis of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) and introduce our new redundancy mechanism for AI accelerators.
