Yimin Gao's thesis titled, "LiteQAIRISC: System-level Emulation of RISC-V Processor with AI and Mixed-precision Quantization Extensions" was successfully defended in Dec'22. In his work, he integrates an industrial RISC-V processor augmented with AI instructions into the open-source LiteX framework for emulation and validation and further optimize the RISC-V ISA with support for mixed-precision quantization. Congrats to Yimin and wish him a successful career ahead of him.
