Abstract

Provided is an image recognition processor. The image recognition processor includes a plurality of nano cores each configured to perform a pattern recognition operation and arranged in rows and columns, an instruction memory configured to provide instructions to the plurality of nano cores in a row unit, a feature memory configured to provide input features to the plurality of nano cores in a row unit, a kernel memory configured to provide a kernel coefficient to the plurality of nano cores in a column unit, and a difference checker configured to receive a result of the pattern recognition operation of each of the plurality of nano cores, detect whether there is an error by referring to the received result, and provide a fault tolerance function that allows an error below a predefined level.
