AMD is an American fabless semiconductor company that designs CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, and APUs. AMD is competing with Intel with its Ryzen CPUs and Nvidia with its Radeon GPUs. Since 2008, production has been consigned to TSMC, concentrating on semiconductor design. AMD is releasing various new products through continuous R&D which is the basis for its growth. AMD stock have recorded the highest rise among global semiconductor companies as sales and operating profit soared due to the strong sales of new products.

We present a new use of common graphics hardware to perform a faster artificial neural network. And we examine the use of GPU enhances the time performance of the image processing system using neural network, In the case of parallel computation of multiple input sets, the vector-matrix products become matrix-matrix multiplications. As a result, we can fully utilize the parallelism of GPU. Sigmoid operation and bias term addition are also implemented using pixel shader on GPU. Our preliminary result shows a performance enhancement of about thirty times faster using ATI RADEON 9800 XT board.

신경망의 테스트 단계를 실시간으로 처리하기 위해 많은 노력이 있었다 본 논문은 일반적인 그래픽스 하드웨어를 이용하여 더욱 빠른 신경망을 구현하고, 구현된 시스템을 영상 처리 분야에 적용함으로써 효용성을 검증한다. GPU는 CPU보다 병렬연산에 효과적이다. GPU의 병렬성을 효율적으로 사용하기 위하여, 다수의 신경망 입력벡터와 웨이트벡터를 모아서 많은 내적연산을 하나의 행렬곱 연산으로 대체하였고, 시그모이드와 바이어스 항 덧셈 연산도 픽셀세이더로 병렬 구현하였다. ATI RADEON 9800 XT 보드를 이용하여 구현된 신경망 시스템은 CPU를 사용한 기존의 시스템과 비교하여 정악도의 차이 없이 30배 정도의 속도 향상을 얻을 수 있었다.

Graphics processing unit (GPU) is used for a faster artificial neural network. It is used to implement the matrix multiplication of a neural network to enhance the time performance of a text detection system. Preliminary results produced a 20-fold performance enhancement using an ATI RADEON 9700 PRO board. The parallelism of a GPU is fully utilized by accumulating a lot of input feature vectors and weight vectors, then converting the many inner-product operations into one matrix operation. Further research areas include benchmarking the performance with various hardware and GPU-aware learning algorithms. (c) 2004 Pattern Recognition Society. Published by Elsevier Ltd.
