Albert Liu

Albert Chun Chen Liuis an electrical engineer and computer scientist, founder and chairman of Kneron Inc., IEEE Fellow, and father of NPU. He invented single-layer multi-point self-contained touch panel technology, low-power light-driven integrated high-frequency circuit technology and reconfigurable deep learning artificial intelligence architecture (NPU), which have been widely used in industry and in various generations of smartphones with Samsung, Qualcomm and MStar solutions. The cumulative number of commercialized products exceeds several billion. He specializes in computer-aided design, artificial intelligence , VLSI design, touch screen panels, image processing , electronic simulation, algorithm development and advanced high-speed semiconductor manufacturing processes. His definition of the NPU-reconfigurable AI chip architecture won the highest honor of the IEEE CAS Association - the IEEE Darlington Award and the IEEE CTSoc Corporate Innovation Leadership Award. He is known in the industry as the "father of NPU (Neural Network Processor)" and the youngest tech industry leader. He is a pioneer in the global edge computing (Edge AI) field.
