Abstract

This work proposes a framework for supporting the implementation of Deep Learning (DL) algorithms on heterogeneous low-energy computing platforms. The method allows automating i) the selection of an optimal algorithm configuration, ii) the optimization of its partitioning and mapping on a target processing platform, and iii) the optimization of power and energy savings during its deployment. The approach will been practically validated on NEURAghe, a flexible and efficient hardware/software solution for the acceleration of CNNs on Zynq SoCs, showing that it can actually be supported by state-of-the-art technologies.
