FPGA-based neural network accelerator outperforms GPUs

Xilinx Developer Forum: Claimed to be the highest performance convolutional neural network (CNN) on an fpga, Omnitek’s CNN is available now. The deep learning processing unit (DPU) is future-proofed, explained CEO Roger Fawcett, due to the programmability of the fpga. It was demonstrated as a GoogLeNet Inception-v1 CNN, using eight-bit integer resolution. It achieved 16.8 ...
