March 2026 monthly summary for ai-dynamo/dynamo. Implemented CPU build support in Dockerfiles to broaden deployment options beyond GPU-only environments. Updated configuration and installation scripts to handle CPU-specific dependencies, enabling CPU-only deployments within existing CI workflows. Change captured in commit 23c42d83edf78e9a7df8dea92b1b107c28eb13a8 (signed-off by Sandeep Maddipatla). Overall impact: expanded accessibility for CPU-based deployments, reduced GPU dependency for customers without GPUs, and groundwork for hardware-agnostic packaging. Demonstrated skills in Docker build customization, cross-platform dependency management, and CI/configuration improvements. No major bugs fixed this month.

In January 2025, delivered DETR-ResNet-50 support on Habana HPUs within HabanaAI/optimum-habana-fork, enabling forward pass, loss computation, and Hungarian matching, with updated tests. Implemented performance optimizations and essential workarounds to ensure reliable HPU execution. This work expands Habana HPUs coverage and drives hardware utilization, setting the stage for broader DETR workloads.
