Processing device for performing convolution operations

摘要

Systems and methods for performing convolution operations. An example processing system comprises: a processing core; and a convolver unit to apply a convolution filter to a plurality of input data elements represented by a two-dimensional array, the convolver unit comprising a plurality of multipliers coupled to two or more sets of latches, wherein each set of latches is to store a plurality of data elements of a respective one-dimensional section of the two-dimensional array.

1. A processing system, comprising:
a processing core; and a convolver unit to apply a convolution filter to a plurality of input data elements represented by a two-dimensional array, the convolver unit comprising a plurality of multipliers coupled to two or more sets of latches, wherein each set of latches is to store a plurality of data elements of a respective one-dimensional section of the two-dimensional array; wherein the convolution filter is provided by a rectangular matrix of pre-defined binary values, and wherein each set of latches comprises a number of latches which is equal to a dimension of the convolution filter.
