Title
Evaluation of image processing algorithms on ARM powered mobile devices
Abstract
Image processing plays an important role in medical image analysis. The most popular methods for image processing and analysis are very resource hungry, which leads to some disadvantages in their applications even on a powerful desktop computers. On the other side, modern mobile devices are equipped with powerful processors with an efficient instruction architecture. This lead to better performance per watt than a desktop CPUs. This work investigates the performance of a widely used medical analysis algorithm implemented on a modern mobile devices and desktop CPU. The results obtained with ARM NEON instructions show speed improvements up to 2 times. As this research shows mobile devices cannot yet compete with powerful desktop CPUs, even with using highly optimizations or multiple threads. In the last part of the paper conclusions are drawn for acceptable image input and parameter sizes.
