LRMP: Layer Replication with Mixed Precision for spatial in-memory DNN accelerators.
Article in Frontiers in artificial intelligence, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
In-memory computing (IMC) with non-volatile memories (NVMs) has emerged as a promising approach to address the rapidly growing computational demands of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs). Mapping DNN layers spatially onto NVM-based IMC accelerators achieves high degrees of parallelism. However, two challenges that arise in this approach are the highly non-uniform distribution of layer processing times and high area requirements. We propose LRMP, a method to jointly apply layer replication and mixed precision quantization to improve the performance of DNNs when mapped to area-constrained IMC accelerators. LRMP uses a combination of reinforcement learning and mixed integer linear programming to search the replication-quantization design space using a model that is closely informed by the target hardware architecture. Across five DNN benchmarks, LRMP achieves 2.6-9.3× latency and 8-18× throughput improvement at minimal (<1%) degradation in accuracy.
