Co-design of deep neural nets and neural net accelerators for embedded vision applications

Deep Learning is arguably the most rapidly evolving research area in recent years. As a result, it is not surprising that the design of state-of-the-art deep neural net models often proceeds without much consideration of the latest hardware targets, and the design of neural net accelerators proceeds without much consideration of the characteristics of the latest deep neural net models. Nevertheless, in this article, we show that there are...
