Project description
Innovate customised AI-chip hardware design
Computer chip hardware is at the heart of AI technologies. Unfortunately, current developers and production sources for AI chips are limited by the cost and expertise required to invest in this field, making it difficult for new competitors to emerge. In this context, the EU-funded TAICHIP project aims to leverage TalTech’s expertise in computer engineering, high-level diagnostics, and nanoelectronic systems testing to establish a novel capacity for researching, innovating, and developing customised AI-chip designs. Furthermore, the project plans to use a forward-thinking R&D framework to enable open hardware architecture and tools, thereby enhancing adaptability.
Objective
Building on TalTechs expertise in the field of computer engineering and its high-level capacity in the domain of diagnostics and testing of nanoelectronic systems, this project aims at establishing in TalTech, with the strong support of the Advanced Partners, the capacity to R&D&I a complete customised AI-chip design flow. The research ambition of the TAICHIP (TalTech AI-chip) action is a leading-edge forward-thinking R&D framework for reliable and resource-efficient custom AI-chips based on open HW architectures (e.g. RISC-V, NVDLA), open EDA (Electronic Design Automation) tools, methodologies and implementation technologies satisfying the requirements of AI applications of tomorrow. TAICHIP project also allows building at TalTech the necessary scientific knowledge, research skills, administrative and management skills, as well as strengthening its advanced training and education capacity. Evenly related to the central goal are the additional measures that focus on building the supporting capacities, as well as dissemination, exploitation and communication, and public policy focused activities.
