What is AI?
Artificial Intelligence
A program able to perform tasks
normally associated with human intelligence
Machine Learning
A program that can perform
tasks without explicit programming
Deep Learning
A program that uses
artificial neural networks
to learn data representations
and perform tasks
without explicit programming

• DL requires Large data sets for training
• DL is computationally intensive
Accelerators are typically used for training & inferencing
• 30% of AI inferencing will be at the edge
• Real-time inferencing needs low latency
moving compute closer to the data

Key highlights
• Algorithms optimization
– making the most of hardware components
– optimal usage of precious resources
– faster results at the lowest possible energy consumption
• Detecting shapes & patterns
• Advanced data analytics
• Sending results rather than raw, unprocessed data
What is Edge AI?
➢ highly optimized AI engines to analyze text,
image, video, sound and time series data
➢ running directly on-devices (AI inferencing)

✓Enables Scalability
(Decentralizes AI services & makes it easier to expand the IoT ecosystems)
✓Enables real-time AI experience
(By using modern low power, high performance, small form factor accelerators)
✓Solves round-trip latencies
(Deploying AI directly on the device enables faster response time)
✓Eliminates intermittent connectivity related issues
(No need for sending the data from the device to external AI services and waiting for results)
✓Reduce total cost of ownership
(AI-enabled devices pre-process the data and send the results to external services vs raw data)
✓Data can stay locally on the device
(Having AI on the device allows for sending the data to external storages selectively)

Federated Learning in action

✓Enables Scalability
(Decentralized AI enables IoT/devices to learn from each other)
✓Solves low-throughput and high-latency challenges
(Local AI models provide real time response and lower power consumption)
✓Improves accuracy
(Have smarter models via aggregation of many local models)
✓Reduces training time
(Benefit from local training and already trained models in the neighborhood)
✓Lowers the cost of training
(Bringing data from all devices is expensive)
✓Ensures privacy
(Sensitive data stays local)
