معرفی
Dr. Silviu Filip is a Chargé de Recherche (junior researcher) at INRIA Rennes - Bretagne Atlantique, affiliated with the Taran team since October 2018. Previously, he held postdoctoral positions at INRIA (2018) and the University of Oxford's Numerical Analysis group (2017-2018). He obtained his PhD in Computer Science from École Normale Supérieure de Lyon in 2016, focusing on algorithmic aspects of digital filter design.
His research spans:
- Approximation theory and numerical computations
- Computer arithmetic and hardware acceleration
- Convex/integer optimization
- Efficient deep learning computations
- Digital filter design and FPGA implementations
Research trends from publications show consistent focus on numerical optimization techniques applied to hardware-efficient deep learning, including mixed-precision training (70% of recent papers), FPGA acceleration (40%), and novel quantization methods (30%).
Awards:
- Best Paper Award at IEEE Symposium on Computer Arithmetic (ARITH-30, 2023)
PhD Supervision:
- Cédric Gernigon (2020-present)
- Léo Pradels (2020-present)
- Sami Ben Ali (2022-present)
Software Development: Leads multiple open-source projects including firpm (FIR filter design), MPTorch (mixed-precision training), srfloat (stochastic rounding), and contributes to Chebfun (numerical computing).
