Xilinx_600_380

Xilinx's AI Platform is the 2019 Vision Product of the Year Award Winner in the Cloud Solutions category. Xilinx’s AI Platform provides a comprehensive set of software and IP to enable hardware accelerated AI inference applications. AI vision applications, which rely on convolutional neural networks, are a major target for the Xilinx AI Platform. The platform provides the tools and sample AI models that allow developers to build and optimize vision-based AI applications including classification, object detection and scene segmentation. Additional examples of vision-based AI applications enabled by the platform include pedestrian detection, facial recognition and pose estimation. For all of these application sets, the platform provides software, IP and example models, which allows AI developers to use Xilinx adaptable hardware to build the most efficient hardware-accelerated AI-vision applications. The Xilinx AI Platform provides the industry’s first dual hardware and software optimizer.

“We are honored to be recognized for the Xilinx AI Platform. The rapid innovation of AI models require adaptable domain-specific architectures to run the latest networks efficiently. There is a critical need for specialized hardware and software architectures for every category of deep learning networks to achieve the performance, latency and power requirements for real-life cloud and edge applications. Xilinx chips can be adapted from hardware to software with the latest architectures without redesigning a chip, to create an ideal AI inference solution.”
