SNAC-Pack 2.0: Scaled-Out Surrogate Neural Architecture Codesign

arXiv:2605. 16138v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Neural architecture search (NAS) is a powerful approach for automating model design, but existing methods often optimize for accuracy alone or rely on proxy metrics such as bit operations (BOPs) that correlate poorly with hardware cost.

FPGN: Redefining Ultra-Fast Programmable Gate-based Neural Acceleration with Differentiable LUTs

Achieving nanosecond-scale inference latency for deep neural networks (DNNs) has become a primary architectural concern for latency-critical applications. While Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) offer a promising substrate for low-latency inference, conventional FPGA accelerators remain arithmetic-centric, using LUTs primarily as building blocks for numerical operators and peripheral logic.
