Abstract

A method is provided for processing on an acceleration component a deep neural network. The method includes configuring the acceleration component to perform forward propagation and backpropagation stages of the deep neural network. The acceleration component includes an acceleration component die and a memory stack disposed in an integrated circuit package. The memory stack has a memory bandwidth greater than about 50 GB/sec and a power efficiency of greater than about 20 MB/sec/mW.
