VLSI Implementation of Deep Neural Network Using Integral Stochastic Computing
Arash Ardakani, François Leduc-Primeau, Naoya Onizawa +2
The hardware implementation of deep neural networks (DNNs) has recently received tremendous attention: many applications in fact require high-speed operations that suit a hardware…
Flexible and Low-Complexity Encoding and Decoding of Systematic Polar Codes
Gabi Sarkis, Ido Tal, Pascal Giard +3
In this work, we present hardware and software implementations of flexible polar systematic encoders and decoders. The proposed implementations operate on polar codes of any length…
Fast List Decoders for Polar Codes
Gabi Sarkis, Pascal Giard, Alexander Vardy +2
Polar codes asymptotically achieve the symmetric capacity of memoryless channels, yet their error-correcting performance under successive-cancellation (SC) decoding for short and m…
Multi-mode Unrolled Architectures for Polar Decoders
Pascal Giard, Gabi Sarkis, Claude Thibeault +1
In this work, we present a family of architectures for polar decoders using a reduced-complexity successive-cancellation decoding algorithm that employs unrolling to achieve extrem…
Low-Latency Software Polar Decoders
Pascal Giard, Gabi Sarkis, Camille Leroux +2
Polar codes are a new class of capacity-achieving error-correcting codes with low encoding and decoding complexity. Their low-complexity decoding algorithms rendering them attracti…
Modeling and Energy Optimization of LDPC Decoder Circuits with Timing Violations
François Leduc-Primeau, Frank R. Kschischang, Warren J. Gross
This paper proposes a "quasi-synchronous" design approach for signal processing circuits, in which timing violations are permitted, but without the need for a hardware compensation…
