High Performance Approximate Memories for Image Processing Applications

Software and hardware interfaces for approximate memories

“…The approximation benefits depend on the accuracy requirements of the application results that usually rely on the acceptance of a well-defined statistical behavior of the computational outcome [94]. Approximation techniques have been applied to several contexts, including wireless sensor networks [3], Internet of Things (IoT) for health monitoring [41], Deep Neural Networks (DNN) [61], and image processing [54].…”
