    摘要: A device includes a match element that includes a first data input configured to receive a first result, wherein the first result is of an analysis performed on at least a portion of a data stream by an element of a state machine. The match element also includes a second data input configured to receive a second result, wherein the second result is of an analysis performed on at least a portion of the data stream by another element of the state machine. The match element further includes an output configured to selectively provide the first result or the second result.

    摘要: In one embodiment of the present invention, a graphics processing unit (GPU) is configured to detect an object in an image using a random forest classifier that includes multiple, identically structured decision trees. Notably, the application of each of the decision trees is independent of the application of the other decision trees. In operation, the GPU partitions the image into subsets of pixels, and associates an execution thread with each of the pixels in the subset of pixels. The GPU then causes each of the execution threads to apply the random forest classifier to the associated pixel, thereby determining a likelihood that the pixel corresponds to the object. Advantageously, such a distributed approach to object detection more fully leverages the parallel architecture of the parallel processing unit (PPU) than conventional approaches. In particular, the PPU performs object detection more efficiently using the random forest classifier than using a cascaded classifier.
