Deep Learning for Object Recognition: DSP and Specialized Processor Optimizations

Algorithms, Articles, BDTI, Cadence, Edge AI and Vision Alliance, Intel, Processors, Software, Synopsys, Technical Articles, Tools /

Neural networks enable the identification of objects in still and video images with impressive speed and accuracy after an initial training phase. This so-called "deep learning" has been enabled by the combination of the evolution of traditional neural network techniques, with one latest-incarnation example known as a CNN (convolutional neural network), by the steadily increasing […]
