Engineers targeting DSP to FPGAs have traditionally used fixed-point arithmetic, mainly because of the high cost associated with implementing floating-point arithmetic. That cost comes in the form of ...

Infinite impulse response (IIR) filter implementations can have different forms (direct, standard, ladder, …), different math (fixed-point or floating-point), and different quantization (number of ...

This paper discusses a simple and effective method for the summation of long sequences of floating point numbers. The method comprises two phases: an accumulation phase where the mantissas of the ...

Why floating point is important for developing machine-learning models. What floating-point formats are used with machine learning? Over the last two decades, compute-intensive artificial-intelligence ...
