Nvidia patents method to merge neural network steps for faster processing

Patent drawing
Patent drawing from the official filing.

Nvidia describes a technique for running artificial intelligence models by combining separate steps in a network graph. The system merges these steps based on the available computing resources to handle the operations more efficiently.

Why it mattersThis is a standard optimization for AI hardware that helps processors run complex models without wasting capacity.

In the filing’s own words

Apparatuses, systems, and techniques to perform a neural network. In at least one embodiment, a neural network is performed by at least combining nodes of a graph based, at least in part, on computing resources to perform operations corresponding to the nodes of the graph.
