Query: A Scalable Pipelined Dataflow Accelerator for Object Region Proposals on
  FPGA Platform   Region proposal is critical for object detection while it usually poses a
bottleneck in improving the computation efficiency on traditional control-flow
architectures. We have observed region proposal tasks are potentially suitable
for performing pipelined parallelism by exploiting dataflow driven
acceleration. In this paper, a scalable pipelined dataflow accelerator is
proposed for efficient region proposals on FPGA platform. The accelerator
processes image data by a streaming manner with three sequential stages:
resizing, kernel computing and sorting. First, Ping-Pong cache strategy is
adopted for rotation loading in resize module to guarantee continuous output
streaming. Then, a multiple pipelines architecture with tiered memory is
utilized in kernel computing module to complete the main computation tasks.
Finally, a bubble-pushing heap sort method is exploited in sorting module to
find the top-k largest candidates efficiently. Our design is implemented with
high level synthesis on FPGA platforms, and experimental results on VOC2007
datasets show that it could achieve about 3.67X speedups than traditional
desktop CPU platform and >250X energy efficiency improvement than embedded ARM
platform.
