A Scalable Architecture for Parallel Execution of the Tsetlin Machine

2019

Master's thesis Information- and communication technology IKT591 - University of Agder 2019 With the Tsetlin Machine recently released, much research has been done on itscapabilities, with great success. However, the lack of tools available, and generalknowledge of the Tsetlin Machine prevents it from being adopted by the indus-try. As a result, it is today mostly used in academic environments. To increasethe general availability of the algorithm, this thesis introduces an introductorydescription to the algorithm and proposes an architecture that allows the use ofmultiple CPU threads and multiple GPUs to execute the algorithm in parallel. Inaddition, this thesis investigates several key asp…
