Deep neural networks... IN SPAAACE: Vector-enhanced RISC-V chips could give satellites onboard AI

Boffins point to benefits of putting rad-hardened ASICs in orbit

Boffins from the Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) and European Space Agency (ESA) have penned a paper detailing the design of a processor they hope could run deep neural networks in space - building on the free and open-source RISC-V architecture and its vector extensions....
