    摘要: The objective of the present invention is to increase reliability in an electronic control device when speculative execution is performed, by reducing the risk of erroneous control by the electronic control device, said erroneous control being due to speculative execution failures (such as failures to predict a future state or failure to complete a control calculation due to the execution of an advanced control calculation) which are generated when speculative execution is performed using limited hardware resources in an electronic control device having a control period restriction. Therefore, this electronic control device, which performs a calculation in accordance with one or more external inputs, and outputs a calculation result by a prescribed time, has one or more first calculation units that perform a calculation using a current input, and one or more second calculation units that perform a calculation using a prior input that been input at a point in time prior to the current input.

    摘要: The present invention addresses the problem of implementing a neural network using a small-scale circuit by simplifying the multiplication of the input data by weight data. The neural network circuit according to the present invention is configured from: a means for multiplying input data by a rounded value of the mantissa part of weight data; a means for shifting the multiplication result by the number of bits of the rounded value; a means for adding the shifted result to the original input data; and a means for shifting the addition result by the number of bits of the exponent part of the weight.

    摘要: Provided is a method of detecting and preventing soft errors without performing multiplexing. As a result, it is possible to improve reliability of a device while suppressing an increase in mounting cost and reduction in operation speed accompanied with it. A diagnosis system includes an initial parameter generation unit which generates a plurality of initial parameters predicted on the basis of an external input; an operation unit which has a plurality of operators operating optimal solutions to the initial parameters by using an evaluation function describing a control object; and a diagnosis unit which diagnoses the operation unit on the basis of an output of the operation unit. When an optimal solution candidate giving an evaluation value deviating from a value taken by each evaluation value by a constant threshold or more among evaluation values corresponding to the optimal solutions to the initial parameters is found, the diagnosis unit diagnoses an error of the operation unit.
