Whiteboard Wednesdays—Mapping Convolutional Neural Networks to the Vision P5 DSP

In this week's Whiteboard Wednesday, Chris Rowen explains how convolutional neural networks (CNNs) map onto the high-performance Tensilica Vision P5 DSP. He describes the benefits that the programmability brings, giving the flexibility needed for the ongoing development of these algorithms alongside the more traditional image processing and computer vision applications.
