A Survey on Machine Learning Accelerators and Evolutionary Hardware Platforms

Advanced computing systems have long been enablers for breakthroughs in artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) algorithms, either through sheer computational power or form-factor miniaturization. However, as AI/ML algorithms become more complex and the size of data sets increases, existing computing platforms are no longer sufficient to bridge the gap between algorithmic innovation and hardware design. This article presents a survey about various ML accelerators.
