New Ceramic Nanofiber ‘Sponges’ for Flexible Insulation, Water Purification

Researchers have found a way to make ultralight sponge-like materials from nanoscale ceramic fibers. The highly porous, compressible and heat-resistant sponges could have numerous uses, from water purification devices to flexible insulating materials. “The basic science question we tried to answer is how can we make a material that’s highly deformable but resistant to high

FPGA Based Deep Learning Accelerators Take on ASICs

Over the last couple of years, the idea that the most efficient and high performance way to accelerate deep learning training and inference is with a custom ASIC—something designed to fit the specific needs of modern frameworks. While this idea has racked up major mileage, especially recently with the acquisition of Nervana Systems by Intel
