Abstract

A method for executing a machine learning model with a controller includes a processor within the controller writing input values to a process image within the controller. The term process image refers to a predefined address space within volatile memory of the controller. A co-processor connected to the controller reads the input values from the process image and applies a machine learning model to the input values to generate output values. The co-processor writes output values to the process image and the processor reads those output values from the process image. The process can then execute an application program that utilizes the one or more output values.
