I would start looking at MLIR: https://github.com/tensorflow/mlir This is a new compiler framework that attempts to bake machine learning computation into the compiler stack. It is spearheaded by Chris Lattner who started LLVM. I think this project is both early in it's development phase and has a good chance at turning into important compiler infrastructure. (I worked in compilers at NVIDIA for a few years)
In Ask HN: Compiler Engineers, what would you advise new grads/students to learn?

Thank you for the kind words Keno. We don't have a great description of what the polyhedral dialect is, but we do have a discussion of what it isn't, here: https://github.com/tensorflow/mlir/blob/master/g3doc/Rationa... There are other docs in the same directory that you might find interesting. We don't have all the details sorted out, but Google would like to contribute at least some part of MLIR to the LLVM.org project, but you have to ask LLVM for acceptance, and that requires putting the code up somewhere first. All things in time, I hope to catch you at EuroLLVM next week where we are giving the keynote and a tutorial on MLIR. -Chris
