Torr: Towards Brain-Inspired Task-Oriented Reasoning via Cache-Oriented Algorithm-Architecture Co-Design
DescriptionTask-oriented object detection on CLIP enables open-vocabulary, prompt-driven semantics but dense alignment and memory traffic block real-time edge use. We propose TorR, a brain-inspired algorithm–architecture co-design that replaces CLIP-style dense matching with hyperdimensional associative reasoning and exploits temporal coherence. TorR combines HDC similarity, graph reasoning with query caching and delta updates, and a lane-scalable, precision-gated item memory with RT-30/RT-60 control. A 28 nm TorR accelerator delivers real-time detection with millijoule energy and competitive AP at orders-of-magnitude lower energy.
