    Abstract: A system and method to reduce weight storage bits for a deep-learning network includes a quantizing module and a cluster-number reduction module. The quantizing module quantizes neural weights of each quantization layer of the deep-learning network. The cluster-number reduction module reduces the predetermined number of clusters for a layer having a clustering error that is a minimum of the clustering errors of the plurality of quantization layers. The quantizing module requantizes the layer based on the reduced predetermined number of clusters for the layer and the cluster-number reduction module further determines another layer having a clustering error that is a minimum of the clustering errors of the plurality of quantized layers and reduces the predetermined number of clusters for the another layer until a recognition performance of the deep-learning network has been reduced by a predetermined threshold.

    Abstract: A Dynamic Vision Sensor (DVS) pose-estimation system includes a DVS, a transformation estimator, an inertial measurement unit (IMU) and a camera-pose estimator based on sensor fusion. The DVS detects DVS events and shapes frames based on a number of accumulated DVS events. The transformation estimator estimates a 3D transformation of the DVS camera based on an estimated depth and matches confidence-level values within a camera-projection model such that at least one of a plurality of DVS events detected during a first frame corresponds to a DVS event detected during a second subsequent frame. The IMU detects inertial movements of the DVS with respect to world coordinates between the first and second frames. The camera-pose estimator combines information from a change in a pose of the camera-projection model between the first frame and the second frame based on the estimated transformation and the detected inertial movements of the DVS.
