Recently, Baidu’s high-performance lightweight reasoning engine Paddle Lite has officially completed compatibility and adaptation with the cloud ARTIFICIAL intelligence processor chip Siyuan 270, which is owned by Domestic AI chip Unicorn Cambrian, and the edge end chip of Siyuan 220 is also expected to complete adaptation in the near future. It also marks the successful integration of the artificial intelligence chip ecology of the Cambrian Terminal cloud and the deep learning framework ecology represented by Baidu Feioar.
The two sides are now based on video image class adapter application scenario for the operator, and has set up a network to support the mainstream applications, follow-up will also be in intelligent transportation, intelligent video analysis, industrial quality more dimensions in the field of software and hardware coordination, the depth of the two big AI software and hardware platform integration or will further promote the complete AI ecological and evolutionary.

We will work together to promote intelligent and high-speed industrial transformation
Baidu fly blade (PaddlePaddle) is the independent research and development, open source, fully functional level industry deep learning platform, it combines deep learning core framework, basic model library, end-to-end development kits, tools, components and services platform, contains the complete development, training, reasoning model of end-to-end deep learning AI development tool chain. Paddle Lite is a high-performance lightweight inference engine that can be used for AI model deployment in edge end, mobile end, and partial server end scenarios. Typical application scenarios include: smart gate, smart home, automatic driving, robot, intelligent matting, AR/VR mobile applications, etc.
With the continuous upgrading in stability, compatibility and maturity, Baidu FeoAR is paying more and more attention to ecological construction with hardware manufacturers, especially with mainstream ARTIFICIAL intelligence chip manufacturers.
“In the field of emerging AI chips, Cambrian is a veritable unicorn. Following the release of Paddle Lite V1.0 in August 2019, Paddle Lite began work on its adaptation to the Cambrian AI chip. At the same time, The Cambrian AI chip is also constantly improving performance and optimizing indicators, we believe that the two can help more industries realize intelligent transformation and contribute to the intelligent development of China’s industry.”
This is only the first step of the cooperation between Baidu Paddle and Cambrian. So far, the cooperation between Cambrian And Paddle Lite is mainly based on cloud reasoning market, but the cooperation based on edge reasoning market is also in progress. In the future, the two sides will carry out cooperation based on cloud training. With the gradual expansion of the ecology of both sides, the ecology of full combination of software and hardware is bound to play a greater role in helping the artificial intelligence industry to achieve multiple scenarios.
Hardware + software, AI ecological layout should have panoramic thinking
One consensus is that in an era of massive data, the collection, organization, analysis and application of data will drive the development of society. With the continuous growth of data volume and the continuous evolution and iteration of algorithms, the demand for extreme computing power is also increasing, and the full combination of software and hardware is particularly important.
As a representative of the DOMESTIC AI chip field, Cambrian has always attached great importance to the ecological construction of its own software and hardware, and called it the development strategy of “integration of cloud edge and end”. On the hardware side, Cambrian has three series products of cloud intelligent chip and acceleration card, edge intelligent chip and acceleration card, terminal intelligent processor IP, providing customers with efficient artificial intelligence computing power support; On the software side, Cambricon Neuware (including software development tool chain, etc.) provides unified platform level basic system software for the whole series of intelligent chip and processor products on the cloud side, breaking the software development barrier between different scenarios, with advantages of high performance, flexibility and scalability.
In addition, Cambrian’s general ai chip products are also adapted to multiple software platforms to expand the ecological boundary of its products and help customers in different industries to achieve rapid implementation of applications. This compatibility with Baidu Paddle Lite is another attempt to expand the Cambrian ecological capacity.
Cambrian related person said: “Baidu’s achievements in AI ecological layout and industrialization implementation are obvious to all. Baidu flying oar deep learning platform has complete ecology, which can be widely adapted to all kinds of AI application scenarios. We believe that through this cooperation, Cambrian will accelerate the implementation of applications in various industries, enabling more application scenarios for upstream and downstream partners.”
