This work explores the utilization of low-power heterogeneous devices for parallelizing the compute-intensive hyper-spectral and multispectral image compression CCSDS-123 entropy encoders. Multithread processing allows for the near-optimal system's bandwidth to be exploited increasing the system ove…
The polyphonic OpenMIC-2018 dataset is based on weak and incomplete labels. The automatic classification of sound events, based on the VGGish bottleneck layer as proposed before by the AudioSet, implies the classification of only one second at a time, making it hard to find the label of that exact m…
With the advent of Big Data application domains, several Machine Learning (ML) signal-processing algorithms, such as Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), are required to process progressively larger datasets at a great cost in terms of both compute power and memory bandwidth. Although dedicated acc…
With 5G millimeter wave communications, the resulting radiation reflects on most visible objects, creating rich multipath environments. The radiation is thus significantly shaped by the obstacles it interacts with, carrying latent information regarding the relative positions of the transmitter, the…
Millimeter wave frequencies paired up with MIMO antennas employing beamforming are seen as critical enablers of next generation networks. However, selecting the most beneficial beamforming weights in a codebook-enabled downlink transmitter is a lengthy task, as the existing methods rely on some form…
Low-Density Parity-Check (LDPC) decoders typically implement a single decoding algorithm or update rule, which narrows down the design space of the decoder and maintains its overall simplicity. However, gear-shift techniques combine multiple decoding algorithms, update rules and quantization of the…
Instead of measuring photo-similarity, SymStereo is a stereo vision algorithm that uses new cost functions to measure symmetry differences between pairs of images. In this paper we propose the acceleration of a complete signal processing pipeline for generating 3D volumes based on dense SymStereo. T…
