EnergyNN: Energy Estimation for Neural Network Inference Tasks on DPU

Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are increasingly becoming popular in embedded and energy limited mobile applications. Hardware designers have proposed various accelerators to speed up the execution of CNNs on embedded platforms. Deep Learning Processor Unit (DPU) is one such generic CNN accelerator for Xilinx platforms that can execute any CNN on one or more DPUs configured on an FPGA. In a p...
