Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) The algorithm was evaluated assuming that edge inference was performed on the data obtained from the wearable biological information sensor. For three applications for wearable healthcare, we evaluated the algorithm from the viewpoint of inference accuracy and energy efficiency by implementing a random forest (RF) and convolutional neural network (CNN) with FPGA. As a result, RF increases energy efficiency by one to three orders of magnitude, making it suitable for low power applications. On the other hand, inferior accuracy, CNN is 3% to 10% high, so it is suitable for applications that require high accuracy.
