Are you sure? This code snippet reeks of AI hallucination:

    // 3. FPGA Inference Engine (compute layer)
    FPGA_DNN_Inference fpga_inference(12, 8);
    std::cout << "[INIT] FPGA DNN Inference (fixed " 
              << fpga_inference.get_fixed_latency_ns() 
              << "ns latency)" << std::endl;

What's going on here? Are you simulating an FPGA? In software? To guarantee a fixed latency? It's named confusingly, at the very least. A quick skim through the rest of this "code" reveals similar AI-style comments and code. Certainly not "only for unit tests and documentation".

Thanks for pointing this out. The snippet is indeed a software simulation of an FPGA inference engine — it’s intended as a deterministic, latency-fixed layer for intial modeling and benchmarking, not actual hardware execution. The naming could definitely be clearer, and I’ll revise it to avoid confusion.
