FlexXNOR-OD: A Channel-Grouped XNOR-Based Variable-Precision Accelerator for Real-Time Edge Object Detection

Object detection at the edge requires a difficult balance among detection accuracy, deterministic latency, memory bandwidth, and energy consumption. Existing binarized accelerators replace multipliers with XNOR and population-count logic, but many designs use a fixed binary datapath or select precision only at the laye...
