Evolutionary Design for Circuit Approximation
Dvořáček, Petr ; Vašíček, Zdeněk (referee) ; Sekanina, Lukáš (advisor)
In recent years, there has been a strong need for the design of integrated circuits showing low power consumption. It is possible to create intentionally approximate circuits which don't fully implement the specified logic behaviour, but exhibit improvements in term of area, delay and power consumption. These circuits can be used in many error resilient applications, especially in signal and image processing, computer graphics, computer vision and machine learning. This work describes an evolutionary approach to approximate design of arithmetic circuits and other more complex systems. This text presents a parallel calculation of a fitness function. The proposed method accelerated evaluation of 8-bit approximate multiplier 170 times in comparison with the common version. Evolved approximate circuits were used in different types of edge detectors.

Algorithms for Objects Simplification
Schulz, Roman ; Štancl, Vít (referee) ; Šiler, Ondřej (advisor)
VYSOKÉ UČENÍ TECHNICKÉ V BRNĚ The purpose of this work is to design and implement a computer system, which should be used for simplification of a polygonal models in 3D space. The system should be allowed to reduce a given number of geometrical primitives from source object. User should have impact to the reducing process by selecting a method, size of target object etc. System uses 3DS file format for model loading and saving. Reader should understand principles of the polygon reduction and used algorithms.
