GVC-L-Spark/QNX DeepLite Prototype DEMO - May 2020
FY 2019-20 · 2019-12-15
Summary
GVC-L-SPARK/QNX - Corportate Accelerator Program: Deeplite will demonstrate a process for reducing the size of deep neural networks for autonomous vehicles which use Blackberry QNX’s ADAS operating system, while preserving the accuracy of the models. This will improve vehicle performance and safety (e.g. stopping distance) while at the same time reducing the cost of deploying Deep Neural Networks (“DNNs”).

Description (French)
GVC-L-SPARK/QNX - Programme d'accélération corporatif : Deeplite fera la démonstration d'un procédé permettant de réduire la taille des réseaux neuronaux profonds pour les véhicules autonomes qui utilisent le système d'exploitation ADAS de Blackberry QNX, tout en préservant la précision des modèles. Cette initiative permettra d'améliorer les performances et la sécurité des véhicules (par exemple, la distance d'arrêt) tout en réduisant le coût de déploiement des réseaux neuronaux profonds (« RNP »).
