Input-Based Dynamic Reconfiguration of Approximate Arithmetic Units for Video Encoding

Input-Based Dynamic Reconfiguration of Approximate Arithmetic Units for Video Encoding Abstract: The field of approximate computing has received significant attention from the research community in the past few years, especially in the context of various signal processing applications. Image and video compression algorithms, such as JPEG, MPEG, and so on, are particularly attractive candidates for approximate […]


A High-Performance FIR Filter Architecture for Fixed and Reconfigurable Applications

A High-Performance FIR Filter Architecture for Fixed and Reconfigurable Applications Abstract: Transpose form finite-impulse response (FIR) filters are inherently pipelined and support multiple constant multiplications (MCM) technique that results in significant saving of computation. However, transpose form configuration does not directly support the block processing unlike direct-form configuration. In this paper, we explore the possibility […]
