FPGA Architectures for Distributed ML Systems for Real-time Beam Loss De-blending

Conference ·
OSTI ID:2006668
The Accelerator Real-time Edge AI for Distributed Systems (READS) project’s goal is to create a Artificial Intelligence (AI) system for real-time beam loss de-blending within the accelerator enclosure, which houses two accelerators: the Main Injector (MI) and the Recycler Ring (RR). In periods of joint operation, when both machines contain high intensity beam, radioactive beam losses from MI and RR overlap on the enclosure’s beam loss monitoring Beam Loss Monitor (BLM) system, making it difficult to attribute those losses to a single machine. Incorrect diagnoses result in unnecessary downtime that incurs both financialand experimental cost. The ML system will automatically disentangle each machine’s contributions to those measured losses, while not disrupting the existing operations-critical functions of the BLM system. This paper will focus on the evolution of the architectures, which provided the high-frequency, low-latency collection of synchronized data streams to make real-time inferences. The ML models, used for learning both local and global machine signatures and producing high quality inferences based on raw BLM loss measurements, will only be discussed at a high-level.
