Artificial neural networks are becoming a standard tool for data analysis, but their potential remains yet to be widely used for hardware-level trigger applications. Nowadays, high-end FPGAs, often used in low-level hardware triggers, offer theoretically enough performance to include networks of considerable size. This makes it very promising and rewarding to optimize a neural network implementation for FPGAs in the trigger context. Here an optimized neural network implementation framework is presented, which typi…
