In this post I will explore binarized neural networks (BNNs) and recent publications related to BNNs in FPGA 2017. BNNs are popularized by Courbariaux et al. in this paper . The essence of BNNs is that we constrain the majority of weights and activation values in a deep neural network with binary values, either +1 or -1. This...
