abstract = "This work presents a combined weightless neural network
architecture for deforestation surveillance and visual navigation
of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Binary images, which are
required for position estimation and UAV navigation, are provided
by the deforestation surveillance circuit. Learned models are
evaluated in a real UAV flight over a green countryside area,
while deforestation surveillance is assessed with an Amazon forest
benchmarking image data. Small utilization percentage of Field
Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs) allows for a higher degree of
parallelization and block processing of larger regions of input
images.",
