We describe in this work a Core Generator for Pattern Recognition tasks. This tool is able to generate, according to user requirements, the hardware description of a digital architecture, which implements a Support Vector Machine, one of the current state–of–the–art algorithms for pattern recognition. The output of the Core Generator consists of a high–level language hardware core description, suitable to be mapped on a reconfigurable device, like a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). As an example of the use of our tool, we compare different solutions, by targeting several reconfigurable devices, and implement the recognition part of a machine vision system for automotive applications.

Abstract
We describe in this work a Core Generator for Pattern Recognition tasks. This tool is able to generate, according to user requirements, the hardware description of a digital architecture, which implements a Support Vector Machine, one of the current state–of–the–art algorithms for pattern recognition. The output of the Core Generator consists of a high–level language hardware core description, suitable to be mapped on a reconfigurable device, like a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). As an example of the use of our tool, we compare different solutions, by targeting several reconfigurable devices, and implement the recognition part of a machine vision system for automotive applications.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
