Rice DSP faculty Yingyan Lin has received an NSF CAREER award for her project "Differentiable Network-Accelerator Co-Search – Towards Ubiquitous On-Device Intelligence and Green AI."  The project has two main aims:  first, to bridge the vast gap between deep learning's prohibitive computational and energy complexity and the constrained resources of consumer devices, and second to reduce the sizable environmental pollution that stems from energy-intensive deep learning training.
