Hawk: Harnessing Hardware-Aware Knowledge for High-Performance NPU Kernel Generation

View original on arxiv.org

Summary

arXiv:2607.01590v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Developing high-performance kernels for Neural Processing Units (NPUs) is a critical industry bottleneck, requiring developers to manually navigate implicit hardware constraints and strict memory hierarchies. While large language models offer immense automation potential, they fail catastrophically on NPUs due to a fundamental lack of hardware-specific priors. Naively transplanting code snippets from similar NPU kernels may pass the compiler, but i
