Prototype Deep Learning Networks on FPGA

Estimate performance of series networks. Profile and retrieve inference results from target devices using MATLAB®

Deep Learning HDL Toolbox™ provides classes to create objects to deploy series deep learning networks to target FPGA and SoC boards. Before deploying deep learning networks onto target FPGA and SoC boards, leverage the methods to estimate the performance and resource utilization of the custom deep learning network. After you deploy the deep learning network, use MATLAB to retrieve the network prediction results from the target FPGA board.
