An ultra-low power always-on keyword spotting (KWS) accelerator is implemented in 22nm CMOS technology, which based on an optimized convolutional neural network (CNN). To reduce the consumption while maintaining system recognition accuracy, we first perform a bit-width quantization method proposed CNN to data/weight bit width required by hardware computing unit without reducing accuracy. Then, propose approximate architecture for quantized using voltage-domain analog switching multiplication...

A low-power high-accuracy reconfigurable processor is proposed for noise-robust keywords recognition and evaluated in 22nm technology, which based on an optimized one-dimensional convolutional recurrent neural network (1D-CRNN). In traditional DNN-based system, the speech feature extraction algorithms DNN classification are two independent modules. Compared to architecture, both processed by 1D-CRNN with weight/data bit width quantized 8/8 bits. Therefore unified training optimization...

In this paper, an ultra-low power always-on keyword spotting (KWS) accelerator is implemented based on optimized convolutional neural network (CNN). To reduce the consumption while maintaining system recognition accuracy, we proposed a deep-shift (DSNN) to hardware resources requirements without accuracy loss. This new form of conventional CNNs and fully connected networks can almost waive multiplication operations greatly consumption. Implementation results show that DSNN support four...
