About the Lab

Professor Jeongwoo Park's research lab specializes in energy-efficient hardware systems for machine learning, with a focus on designing specialized accelerators for on-chip training and inference in resource-constrained environments such as mobile and edge devices. The lab explores low-precision computing, sparsity exploitation, and high-level hardware modeling techniques like SystemC TLM to bridge the gap between algorithmic advances and practical hardware implementation. Their work also extends to biomedical signal processing, particularly in electrical impedance tomography using physics-informed optimization. Overall, the lab emphasizes the co-design of algorithms, architectures, and systems for real-time, low-power intelligent systems.

7.6 A 65nm 236.5nJ/Classification Neuromorphic Processor with 7.5% Energy Overhead On-Chip Learning Using Direct Spike-Only Feedback
Jeongwoo Park, Juyun Lee, Dongsuk Jeon

Advances in neural network and machine learning algorithms have sparked a wide array of research in specialized hardware, ranging from high-performance convolutional neural network (CNN) accelerators to energy-efficient deep-neural network (DNN) edge computing systems [1]. While most studies have focused on designing inference engines, recent works have shown that on-chip training could serve practical purposes such as compensating for process variations of in-memory computing [2] or adapting to

Recent advances in neural network (NN) and machine learning algorithms have sparked a wide array of research in specialized hardware, ranging from high-performance NN accelerators for use inside the server systems to energy-efficient edge computing systems. While most of these studies have focused on designing inference engines, implementing the training process of an NN for energy-constrained mobile devices has remained to be a challenge due to the requirement of higher numerical precision.

Jeongwoo Park, Sunwoo Lee, Dongsuk Jeon

Recent works on mobile deep-learning processors have presented designs that exploit sparsity [2, 3], which is commonly found in various neural networks. However, due to the shift in the machine learning community towards using non-sparse activation functions such as Leaky ReLU or Swish for better training convergence, state-of-theart models no longer exhibit the sparsity found in conventional ReLU-based models (Fig. 9.3.1, top). Moreover, contrary to error-tolerant image classification tasks, mo

Co-simulation of SystemC TLM with RTL HDL for surveillance camera system verification
Jeongwoo Park, Bongchun Lee, Kyusam Lim, Jeong-Hun Kim, Suki Kim, Kwang‐Hyun Baek

Modern SoCs have the large scale and complexity. Modeling hardware architectures for SoCs usually requires pin-level and cycle-level descriptions by register transfer level(RTL). Hardware design at RTL takes too much effort to develop and simulate HDL code such as Verilog or VHDL. Therefore, a higher abstraction level is needed. Transaction level modeling (TLM) using SystemC addresses the limitations of pure RTL modeling methodologies. In this paper, we apply co-simulation of SystemC TLM with RT

Nonlinear Electrical Impedance Tomography Method Using a Complete Electrode Model for the Characterization of Heterogeneous Domains
Jeongwoo Park, Bong-Gu Jung, Jun Won Kang
SJR Q2Computer Modeling in Engineering & SciencesOA

This paper presents an electrical impedance tomography (EIT) method using a partial-differential-equation-constrained optimization approach. The forward problem in the inversion framework is described by a complete electrode model (CEM), which seeks the electric potential within the domain and at surface electrodes considering the contact impedance between them. The finite element solution of the electric potential has been validated using a commercial code. The inverse medium problem for recons

An MDDI-Host Architecture with Low Complexity for SoC Platforms
Jeongwoo Park, Kwangjae Lee, Jeong Hun Kim, Kwang‐Hyun Baek, Suki Kim
SJR Q1IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics

This paper proposes a low-complexity mobile display digital interface (MDDI) architecture. We implement and verify the proposed MDDI-host architecture on a system-on-chip (SoC) platform with a 32-bit RISC CPU and a FPGA module. As a result of verification, the gate count of the MDDI host is reduced by about 50 % compared to that of the conventional parallel interface. And the bandwidth per pin of the MDDI host is 3 times more than that of a conventional parallel interface. Furthermore, the MDDI

HoloGesture: A Multimodal Dataset For Hand Gesture Recognition Robust To Hand Textures On Head-Mounted Mixed-Reality Devices
Jeongwoo Park, Je Hyeong Hong

While the recent development of high performance mixedreality (MR) devices is enabling its use in medical and industrial domains, this requires hand gesture recognition to be robust to different textures inflicted by gloves often worn for hygiene and safety purposes. Unfortunately, most existing hand gesture datasets are not captured using recent commercial MR devices, and none addresses the issue of wearing gloves in gesture recognition. We aim to fill these gaps by introducing a new dataset ca
