Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / In autonomous driving, medical diagnosis, unmanned vehicles and many other
new technologies, the neural network and computer vision has become extremely
popular and influential. In particular, for classifying objects, convolutional neural
networks (CNN) is very efficient and accurate. One version is the Region-based CNN
(RCNN). This is our selected network design for a new implementation in an FPGA.
This network identifies stop signs in an image.
We successfully designed and trained an RCNN network in MATLAB and implemented it in the hardware to use in an embedded real-world application. The hardware implementation has been achieved with maximum FPGA utilization of 220
18k BRAMS, 92 DSP48Es, 8156 FFS, 11010 LUTs with an on-chip power consumption of 2.235 Watts. The execution speed in FPGA is 0.31 ms vs. the MATLAB
execution of 153 ms (on the computer) and 46 ms (on GPU).
