"First Steps Towards Bringing Automatic Differentiation to Scale with RISC-V"

Small adaptions to the control unit and datapath of a RISC-V processor enable us to apply forward-mode automatic differentiation in hardware to arithmetic instructions. The presented processor design extends an existing implementation of the RISC-V ISA, written for high-level synthesis in C. With some adaptions to the existing architecture, we enable automatic differentiation in hardware. To that extent, we introduce custom RISC-V instructions. The synthesized design runs on an FPGA.
