Abstract

This paper proposes a scheme to implement classifiers with high generalization properties on FPGAs. The classifiers consist of only combinational logic circuits, which are based on a simple concept, and the VHDL source files which describe the classifiers are generated by a C-language function, tuning VHDL notations for adders in them to reduce both its hardware size and computation time. Simulation results based on a character recognition are shown in terms of generalization property, hardware size, computation time, and electricity consumption.
