This architecture can adapt to various bit-width representations of HOG features by using the quantization technique. The HOG features can be represented from 8 bits to 4 bits to remove the bubble in the processing pipeline and reduce the memory footprint. As a result, the overall throughput is robustly increased as the number of bits decreases. Moreover, we propose a new cell-reused strategy to speed up the system throughput and reduce memory footprint. The proposed architecture has been implemented in TSMC 65nm technology with a maximum operating frequency of 500MHz and throughput of 3.98Gbps. The total hardware area cost is about 167KGEs and 212kb SRAMs. date: 2022-09-21 type: Conference or Workshop Item type: PeerReviewed format: application/pdf language: en identifier: https://eprints.uet.vnu.edu.vn/eprints/id/eprint/4779/1/Final%20manuscript%20Doanh%201.pdf identifier: Nguyen, Ngo Doanh and Bui, Duy Hieu and Hussin, Fawnizu Azmadi and Tran, Xuan Tu (2022) An Adaptive Hardware Architecture using Quantized HOG Features for Object Detection.
