Honored ContributorAbout My Project Which is AI and ANN Related
Like what the title says (ANN = Artificial Neural Network), I only have (limited) access to Cyclone II and am planning to use Quartus II Web Edition but what other options are available for me in imp...

Honored Contributor --- Quote Start --- I'm not sure I'm getting this, so basically I don't know which one I'll be implementing my project with and which one is the better one (easier or not, doesn't matter). I'm fairly new with FPGA and hardly ever used Cyclone II so I need to experiment around first to really understand FPGA. =/ --- Quote End --- The first thing you need to do, is to identify some AI algorithms and implement them in C or C++, or MATLAB. That will give you a starting point. In parallel with that, you can learn the basics of FPGAs, eg., look at the hardware description languages VHDL, Verilog, and SystemVerilog, and chose one to learn. Create some simple designs and run them in the Modelsim simulator. When you have an idea of what your AI algorithms need to do, you can describe them on this forum and ask for advice on how to accelerate them with an FPGA. Cheers, Dave
