I wish to use new approximate multiplier designed in Xilinx using Verilog code into image processing applications. can anyone tell how to bridge Xilinx and Matlab
Thanks for your reply Mr. Abdullah. I am not going to do real time implementation. my requirement is there anyway to use the multiplier design coded in verilog using xilinx into an image processing algorithm written in matlab.
Rather than out rightly saying no , I would suggest to a small code , say a buffer (in hdl) , make a model and then execute (the binaries of the model) matlab (.m/.mat) where you provide the input vectors . Certainly not easy, if you can see a transparency then you can make a block of the multiplier and use it in matlab script.
The best way is to use the HDL Coder that is part of the MATLAB with just couple fo steps. You can write down your code in Matlab and than by using HDL coder you can convert the Matlab code into VHDL code. The converted code can be tested on Xilinx to generate the simulated results. You need to have fixed-point matlab code in-order to convert into VHDL code.
