An analog ReLu-based decision tree circuit architecture for biomedical applications
摘要
This paper presents a low-power and high performance decision tree classifier for biomedical applications. The proposed architecture consists of Current Comparator circuits, ReLu circuits, Gaussian function circuits, analog multipliers, Current Mirrors and argmax operator. All the circuits operate in the sub-threshold region in order to achieve power-efficiency. The principles of the architecture are thoroughly described and realized in an energy-efficient set-up that consumes less than 956 nW and operates on low supply rails of 0.6 V. When tested on real-world biomedical classification tasks, the proposed design achieved a classification accuracy exceeding
