The project is expected to include development of a  prototype suitable for operation  on  embedded microprocessors or micro-controllers which do not efficiently support floating point math in hardware.  Testing and validation will be included to validate the performance and accuracy against floating point math implementations., description french : Moteur d'inférence d'apprentissage automatique par points fixes, expected results english : The purpose of IRAP Contributions to Firms is to support research, development, adoption and/or adaptation of innovative or technology-driven new or improved products, services or processes in Canada up to their commercialization, expected results french : Le PARI, par le biais des Contributions aux entreprises, vise à appuyer la recherche, le développement, l’adaptation et/ou l’adoption au Canada de produits, de services ou de processus novateurs ou axés sur des technologies nouvelles ou améliorées, et ce jusqu’à leur commercialisation, additional information english : nan, additional information french : nan, owner organization : nrc-cnrc, owner organization title : National Research Council Canada | Conseil national de recherches Canada
