Implementing Image Applications on FPGAs
نویسندگان
چکیده
Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are nonconventional processors built almost entirely out of lookup tables. In particular, FPGAs contain grids of logic blocks, connected by a grid of wires with programmable connections. Each logic block has one or more lookup tables and several bits of memory. As a result, logic blocks can implement arbitrary logic functions (up to a few bits), or be combined together to form registers.

Implementing Image Processing Algorithms on FPGAs
FPGAs are often used as implementation platforms for real-time image processing applications because their structure is able to exploit spatial and temporal parallelism. Such parallelisation is subject to the processing mode and hardware constraints of the system. These constraints can force the designer to reformulate the algorithm. This paper presents some general techniques for dealing with ...
متن کاملAccelerated image processing on FPGAs
The Cameron project has developed a language called single assignment C (SA-C), and a compiler for mapping image-based applications written in SA-C to field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs). The paper tests this technology by implementing several applications in SA-C and compiling them to an Annapolis Microsystems (AMS) WildStar board with a Xilinx XV2000E FPGA. The performance of these applica...
متن کاملSecure FPGA Design by Filling Unused Spaces
Nowadays there are different kinds of attacks on Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). As FPGAs are used in many different applications, its security becomes an important concern, especially in Internet of Things (IoT) applications. Hardware Trojan Horse (HTH) insertion is one of the major security threats that can be implemented in unused space of the FPGA. This unused space is unavoidable to ...

This paper presents an FPGA implementation of a two-dimensional median filter architecture for image and video processing applications. The architecture exploits sorting based on partial rather than complete per-pixel information. This allows performance enhancement, which is a key point in image filtering, as the sampling frequency is typically relatively high. Abstrakt This paper presents an ...
متن کاملVariable Precision Floating-Point Divide and Square Root for Efficient FPGA Implementation of Image and Signal Processing Algorithms
Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) are frequently used to accelerate signal and image processing algorithms due to their flexibility, relatively low cost, high performance and fast time to market. For those applications where the data has large dynamic range, floating-point arithmetic is desirable due to the inherent limitations of fixed-point arithmetic. Moreover, optimal reconfigurable ha...
