摘要翻译：
部署最先进的CNNs需要耗电的处理器和片外存储器。这排除了CNNs在低功耗嵌入式系统中的实现。最近的研究表明CNNs支持极端量化，将它们的权重和中间特征映射二值化，从而节省8-32\x内存，并将能量密集型的乘积和折叠为XNOR和-POPCOUNT操作。我们提出了XNORBIN，这是一个二进制CNNs的加速器，其计算与内存紧密耦合，以实现积极的数据重用。XNORBIN采用UMC 65nm技术，在0.8V下，能量效率为95top/s/W，面积效率为2.0top/s/mGe。

英文摘要：
  Deploying state-of-the-art CNNs requires power-hungry processors and off-chip memory. This precludes the implementation of CNNs in low-power embedded systems. Recent research shows CNNs sustain extreme quantization, binarizing their weights and intermediate feature maps, thereby saving 8-32\x memory and collapsing energy-intensive sum-of-products into XNOR-and-popcount operations.   We present XNORBIN, an accelerator for binary CNNs with computation tightly coupled to memory for aggressive data reuse. Implemented in UMC 65nm technology XNORBIN achieves an energy efficiency of 95 TOp/s/W and an area efficiency of 2.0 TOp/s/MGE at 0.8 V.
