Clobber

Clojure inspired Lisp dialect with native hardware acceleration support.
WIP

  Clobber is a statically typed, general purpose language combining the robustness and expressivity of Lisp languages with the speed of hardware accelerated code - all in one package.

 

Native Hardware Acceleration

(defn -main [& ^string args]
  ; assuming 'read-img' parses an img into a tensor
  (let [^tensor<f32,1,28,28> img1 (read-img "img1.png")
        ^tensor<f32,1,28,28> img2 (read-img "img2.png")]

    (accel
        [^tensor<f32,1,28,28> a img1 
         ^tensor<f32,1,28,28> b img2]
      (matmul (reshape a [1 (* 28 28)])
              (transpose (reshape b [1 (* 28 28)]))))))

Clobber provides bindings to interface with various low-level APIs such as Vulkan or specialized runtimes such as the ONNX Runtime. This is done by defining acceleration blocks and defining tensor operations, which gets parsed into MLIR TOSA, which is then emitted as target-specific, lower-level IR.
