Dynamically reconfigurable signal processing circuit, pattern recognition apparatus, and image processing apparatus

摘要

A plurality of signal processing functions are achieved with the same arithmetic processing circuit by controlling wiring arrangements or signal modulation in accordance with a predetermined arrangement control signal that is output based on circuit arrangement information read from a circuit arrangement information storage unit. Hierarchical parallel processing is realized with small-scale circuit configuration. Further, detection of a predetermined feature and integration of the detection results can be efficiently performed.
