Abstract

See full text

A sparse convolutional neural network accelerator system that dynamically and efficiently identifies fine-grained parallelism in sparse convolution operations. The system determines matching pairs of non-zero input activations and weights from the compacted input activation and weight arrays utilizing a scalable, dynamic parallelism discovery unit (PDU) that performs a parallel search on the input activation array and the weight array to identify reducible input activation and weight pairs.
