Object recognition using FPGA and TINY YOLO

摘要

The objective of this paper is to build an Object Recognition model using ‘TINY YOLO’ and FPGA. Object Recognition is a CV (i. e., Computer Vision) technique for identifying and detecting objects in images or videos. Object recognition is a key output of DL (i. e., Deep Learning) and ML (i. e., Machine Learning). When we humans look at an image or video, we can readily spot people, object, scene and visual details. The aim of this is to teach a computer to do what comes innately to a human being. Object recognition is done with Image Classification, Object Localization and Object Detection that combines these two tasks and localizes and classifies an object in an image. Object Recognition has become a pivotal technology for driverless cars, security purpose, traffic surveillance etc., It is also used in a various application such as disease detection in bio imaging, industrial examination, and robotic vision. Hence, in a nutshell, ‘Object Recognition is the staple of automation industry’.
