This may cause misclassification of objects resulting in unsafe situations that could involve the loss of human lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u2018As CNNs interconnect with other systems, they are more exposed to malicious attacks that can affect their inference process. <strong>Only changing a small number of bits in the network parameters can negatively affect their inference process<\/strong>. Also, as integration scales increase and supply voltages decrease, these parameters are also exposed to accidental alterations that cannot always be easily corrected. This is the case, for example, for autonomous robots used in the exploration of other planets. Currently, solutions based on error correction codes (ECC) to tolerate these failures require spatial redundancy that is not always technically reliable,&#8217; says the UPV professor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>For this reason, his talk focused on his research team&#8217;s work on the development of error correction code (ECC)-based solutions to strengthen CNNs against multiple bit faults without requiring additional memory.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\"

Summer\u2019.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He used his stay in Australia to attend the \u2018<em>86th IFIP WG 10.4 Meeting Summer\u2019 <\/em>held in Gold Coast, <strong>where he gave a prospective presentation of the research work carried out by his group <em>\u2018Fault-Tolerant Systems Group\u2019 (GST).<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The IFIP WG 10.4 is a world-leading team of experts that
