Використання зовнішньої пам’яті для великих нейронних моделей на ПЛІС

Abstract

This work examines the integration of external memory to support neural network models on FPGAs. While FPGAs offer reduced size and single chip capabilities, their limited on-chip memory restricts the deployment of complex multi-task architectures. By adding external off-chip memory banks, model’s wights can be placed there. This approach could be achieved with a ARTIX-7 FPGA Development Board AX7203, as it has all the necessary hardware
