US Patent Issued to ZHEJIANG LAB on April 14 for "Intermediate representation method and apparatus for compiling computation graphs" (Chinese Inventors)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., April 15 -- United States Patent no. 12,602,322, issued on April 14, was assigned to ZHEJIANG LAB (Hangzhou, China).

"Intermediate representation method and apparatus for compiling computation graphs" was invented by Hongsheng Wang (Hangzhou, China), Aimin Pan (Hangzhou, China) and Guang Chen (Hangzhou, China).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A process for generating an intermediate representation methodically compiles a neural network into a computation graph. First, a distinct node is built for every tensor variable within the graph, and this node is linked to a collection of pointers that reference the variable. Next, the method undertakes an analysis of the constraint relati...
