FPGA-Based Optical Surface Inspection of Wind Turbine Rotor Blades Using Quantized Neural Networks

Quantization of the weights and activations of a neural network is a way to drastically reduce necessary memory accesses and to replace arithmetic operations with bit-wise operations. This is especially beneficial for the implementation on field-programmable gate array (FPGA) technology that is part...
