William James Dally

NVIDIA Chief Scientist and SVP Research and Stanford Professor.

Patent №: 12118454 (October 15, 2024) – Neural network accelerator using logarithmic-based arithmetic.

Neural networks use convolution layers requiring multiplication and addition. Multiplication in logarithmic format is efficient, but addition is complex. Instead of converting values to integers, exponents are decomposed, sorted, summed, and multiplied, then converted back to logarithmic format for efficient addition.

Patent №: 12118230 (October 15, 2024) – Method for providing logging for persistent memory. This disclosure describes methods and systems for logging writes to memory locations. The logs capture only the final values of changed locations during a given interval. These logs can be used to recreate memory states at specific points in the application’s execution.

Patent №: 12118224 (October 15, 2024) – Fine grained resource management for rollback memory operations. This disclosure presents methods and systems where a system tracks resources for each rollback session, including available memory. If a write exceeds the memory limit for a session, a flag is set, and the write is not mirrored. This prevents one undo logging session from using excessive memory, ensuring proper functioning of other sessions by enforcing resource limits.

Seungwook Park

Part Leader in Dep of Standardization.

Patent №: 12120343 (October 15, 2024) – Method and apparatus for signaling image information, and decoding method and apparatus using same.

The invention relates to a method for signaling image information and a corresponding decoding method. It involves performing inter-prediction on a current picture and signaling the result along with reference picture information. This reference information includes picture order count (POC) details of usable reference pictures.

Patent №: 12120332 (October 15, 2024) – Video encoding method, video decoding method, and device using same. The invention relates to a video encoding and decoding method, along with a device using it. The video encoding method includes partitioning an input picture into tiles and slices, encoding based on these partitions, and transmitting the encoded video data. The picture can be divided into multiple tiles and slices, with parallel processing restrictions applied to both.
