contents A new architecture of CNN hardware accelerator is presented. Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are a subclass of neural networks that have demonstrated outstanding performance in a variety of computer vision applications, including object detection, image classification, and many more.Convolution, a mathematical operation that consists of multiplying, shifting and adding a set of input values by a set of learnable parameters known as filters or kernels, which is the fundamental component of a CNN.The Karatsuba Ofman multiplier is known for its ability to perform high-speed multiplication with less hardware resources compared to traditional multipliers. This article examines the usage of the Karatsuba Ofman Multiplier method on FPGA in the prominent CNN designs AlexNet, VGG16, and VGG19.
