IREE, an open-source compiler from the IREE project, now compiles machine learning models to native RISC-V CPU code with support for the RISC-V Vector extension (RVV), hand-written microkernels, and d…
MLIR, a compiler infrastructure framework, has become the foundation for numerous machine learning compilers including XLA, Triton, Mojo, Torch-MLIR, IREE, and ONNX-MLIR. It provides a reusable IR con…
Perplexity AI open-sourced a Unigram tokenizer reimplemented in Rust that achieves 5x lower p50 latency than the Hugging Face tokenizers crate at production input lengths. The new tokenizer, available…
