Abstract
An example method of training a neural network includes defining hardware building blocks (HBBs), neuron equivalents (NEQs), and conversion procedures from NEQs to HBBs; defining the neural network using the NEQs in a machine learning framework; training the neural network on a training platform; and converting the neural network as trained into a netlist of HBBs using the conversion procedures to convert the NEQs in the neural network to the HBBs of the netlist.
