Abstract

The Multiple-Wordlength Operation Grouping (MWOG) is a recently used approach for an optimized implementation on a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA). By fixing the precision constraint, this approach allows minimizing the data wordlength. In this paper, the authors present the integration of the approach based on the MWOG in the Algorithm Architecture Adequation (AAA) methodology, designed to implement real-time applications onto reconfigurable circuits. This new AAA-MWOG methodology will improve the optimization phase of the AAA methodology by taking into account the data wordlength and creating approximative-wordlength operation groups, where the operations in the same group will be performed with the same operator. The AAA-MWOG methodology will allow a considerable gain of circuit resources. This contribution is demonstrated by implementing the Learning Vector Quantization (LVQ) neural-networks model on the FPGA. The LVQ optimization is used to quantify vigilance states starting from processing the electroencephalographic signal. The precision-gain relation has been studied and reported.
