Research summary
AI-generated

Akul Malhotra works on hardware for running artificial intelligence (AI) more efficiently, focusing on 'in-memory computing' — a design approach where data storage and computation happen in the same physical location to speed up AI calculations and reduce energy use. Much of the work addresses making these memory-based AI chips more reliable and fault-tolerant, especially for low-precision neural networks (binary and ternary, meaning they use very simplified numerical representations) and emerging memory technologies like resistive RAM, STT-MRAM, and ferroelectric transistors.
