摘要： A device (e.g., an integrated circuit chip) includes a dot product processing component, a data alignment component, and an accumulator. The dot product processing component is configured to calculate a dot product of a first group of elements stored in a first storage unit with a second group of elements, wherein: each element of the first group of elements is represented using a first number of bits, each value of a group of values stored in the first storage unit is represented using a second number of bits greater than the first number of bits, and each value of the group of values is stored as split segments across more than one element of the elements of the first group of elements. The data alignment component is configured to receive results of the dot product processing component and modify one or more of the results of the dot product processing component. The accumulator is configured to sum outputs of the data alignment component to at least in part determine a sum of the group of values.

摘要： A processor system comprises a plurality of processing elements. Each processing element includes a corresponding convolution processor unit configured to perform a portion of a groupwise convolution. The corresponding convolution processor unit determines multiplication results by multiplying each data element of a portion of data elements in a convolution data matrix with a corresponding data element in a corresponding groupwise convolution weight matrix. The portion of data elements in the convolution data matrix that are multiplied belong to different channels and different groups. For each specific channel of the different channels, the corresponding convolution processor unit sums together at least some of the multiplication results belonging to the same specific channel to determine a corresponding channel convolution result data element. The processing elements sum together a portion of the channel convolution result data elements from a group of different convolution processor units to determine a groupwise convolution result data element.
