Research summary
AI-generated

Vijay Raghunathan works on making computing hardware and systems more energy-efficient, particularly for embedded devices, edge computing, and Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Recent work focuses on designing specialized chips called Neural Processing Units (NPUs) that efficiently run AI models like graph neural networks and other emerging network architectures on small, resource-limited devices. His research also explores approximate computing, a technique that trades a small amount of accuracy for large energy savings across sensing, computing, memory, and communication systems.
