An FPGA-based MobileNet Accelerator Considering Network Structure Characteristics

Convolutional neural networks (CNNs) have been widely deployed in computer vision tasks. However, the computation and resource intensive characteristics of CNN bring obstacles to its application on embedded systems. MobileNet, as a representative of compact models, can reduce the amount of parameters and computation. A high-performance inference accelerator on FPGA for MobileNet is proposed in thi...
