Outline of Final Research Achievements |
A high-speed PSO (Particle Swarm Optimization) hardware engine is proposed in this research. The proposed PSO hardware engine have tree distinctive features which are adaptive particle calculation block (APCB),pipeline fitness calculation engine (PFCE) and asynchronous control unit (ACU). The APCB can selectively switch the multiple PSO algorithms based on the convergence statues. The PFCE adopts a proposed sub-processor to reduce the calculation time with pipeline technology. The ACU can drastically improve the performance of each module for reducing the unnecessary waiting time. As the result, the proposed hardware engine can achieve 10 times processing speed compared the conventional approach.
