Hardware Random Forest: Low Latency, Fully Reconfigurable Ensemble Classification

摘要

Systems, methods, computer program products, and apparatuses for low latency, fully reconfigurable hardware logic for ensemble classification methods, such as random forests. An apparatus may comprise circuitry for an interconnect and circuitry for a random forest implemented in hardware. The random forest comprising a plurality of decision trees connected via the interconnect, each decision tree comprising a plurality of nodes connected via the interconnect. A first decision tree of the plurality of decision trees comprising a first node of the plurality of nodes to: receive a plurality of elements of feature data via the interconnect, select a first element of feature data, of the plurality of elements of feature data, based on a configuration of the first node, and generate an output based on the first element of feature data, an operation, and a reference value, the operation and reference value specified in the configuration of the first node.
