Key Takeaways
- SiMa.ai’s leadership in the AI/ML edge category was made possible by the Palette software that optimizes end-to-end model execution and performance.
- In the 2024 MLPerf submission, SiMa.ai performance as measured by FPS/W increased across all workloads between 7% and 16% .1
- Three consecutive best-in-class results demonstrates SiMa’s continued improvements and commitment as the industry standard for AI/ML at the embedded edge.
SiMa.ai achieved best-in-class results in the MLPerf benchmark for Edge category for the third consecutive time. In the MLPerf 4.0 submission, SiMa.ai maintained dominance in FPS/W, improving performance across all evaluated workloads with increases in FPS ranging between 7% and 16% in the Closed Edge Power category over its 3.1 submission last August.1 As perennial forerunners in MLPerf benchmarking, SiMa.ai continues to deliver on its ongoing commitment to industry leadership by enabling customers to realize real-world value of performance that does not sacrifice power efficiency.
SiMa.ai’s Palette software plays a crucial role in the execution of ML models with significant improvements, such as streamlined memory movements, just-in-time input and output image setup, and data structures aligned to the accelerator format. The result? More efficient use of the runtime resources propelled our SingleStream performance by 16%, MultiStream2 performance by 7% with a 2x lead against the nearest competitor and Offline performance by 14%. 1
