Abstract(in English) Implementation of AI on the object side is now expected in the IoT field. Binary neural network that binarize input, output and learning data are attracted attention because they can realize highly efficient circuits, but problems remain in recognition accuracy and low versatility. In this research, we studied a ternary neural network using ternarization. It aimed at an inference chip with higher precision and smaller area than binarization. We tried to ternarize general learning data calculated with real numbers and examined implementation of FPGA.
