Abstract
En 中文
The exponential growth of various complex images is putting tremendous pressure on storage systems. Here, we propose a memristor-based storage system with an integrated near-storage in-memory computing-based convolutional autoencoder compression network to boost the energy efficiency and speed of the image compression/retrieval and improve the storage density. We adopt the 4-bit memristor arrays to experimentally demonstrate the functions of the system. We propose a step-by-step quantization aware training scheme and an equivalent transformation for transpose convolution to improve the system performance. The system exhibits a high (>33 dB) peak signal-to-noise ratio in the compression and decompression of the ImageNet and Kodak24 datasets. Benchmark comparison results show that the 4-bit memristor-based storage system could reduce the latency and energy consumption by over 20x/5.6x and 180x/91x, respectively, compared with the server-grade central processing unit-based/the graphics processing unit-based processing system, and improve the storage density by more than 3 times.
