HLSFactory: A Framework Empowering High-Level Synthesis Datasets for Machine Learning and Beyond

Machine learning (ML) techniques have been applied to high-level synthesis (HLS) flows for quality-of-result (QoR) prediction and design space exploration (DSE). Nevertheless, the scarcity of accessible high-quality HLS datasets and the complexity of building such datasets present great challenges to FPGA and ML researchers. Existing datasets either cover only a subset of previously published benchmarks, provide no way to enumerate optimization design spaces, are limited to a specific vendor, or have no reproducible and extensible software for dataset construction. Many works also lack user-friendly ways to add more designs to existing datasets, limiting wider adoption and sustainability of such datasets.

Abstract

Machine learning (ML) techniques have been applied to high-level synthesis (HLS) flows for quality-of-result (QoR) prediction and design space exploration (DSE). Nevertheless, the scarcity of accessible high-quality HLS datasets and the complexity of building such datasets present great challenges to FPGA and ML researchers. Existing datasets either cover only a subset of previously published benchmarks, provide no way to enumerate optimization design spaces, are limited to a specific vendor, or have no reproducible and extensible software for dataset construction. Many works also lack user-friendly ways to add more designs to existing datasets, limiting wider adoption and sustainability of such datasets.
