Graph convolutional network (GCN) emerges as a promising direction to learn the inductive representation in graph data commonly used in widespread applications, such as E-commerce, social networks, and knowledge graphs. However, learning from graphs is non-trivial because of its mixed computation model involving both graph analytics and neural network computing. To this end, we decompose the GCN learning into two hierarchical paradigms: graph-level and node-level computing. Such a hierarchical paradigm facilitates the software and hardware accelerations for GCN learning. We propose a lightweight graph reordering methodology, incorporated with a GCN accelerator architecture that equips a customized cache design to fully utilize the graph-level data reuse. We also propose a mapping methodology aware of data reuse and task-level parallelism to handle various graphs inputs effectively. Results show that Rubik accelerator design improves energy efficiency by 26.3x to 1375.2x than GPU platforms across different datasets and GCN models. |
