Question: can fpgas beat gpus in accelerating?
Answer: Our results show that Stratix 10 FPGA is 10%, 50%, and 5.4x better in performance (TOP/sec) than Titan X Pascal GPU on GEMM operations for pruned, Int6, and binarized DNNs, respectively. ... Our results indicate that FPGAs may become the platform of choice for accelerating next-generation DNNs.
