Abstract

See full text

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for balanced-weight sparse convolution processing. An exemplary method comprises: obtaining an input tensor and a plurality of filters at a layer within a neural network; segmenting the input tensor into a plurality of sub-tensors; dividing a channel dimension of each of the plurality of filters into a plurality of channel groups; pruning each of the plurality of filters so that each of the plurality of channel groups of each filter comprises a same number of non-zero weights; segmenting each of the plurality of filters into a plurality of the sub-filters according to the plurality of channel groups; and assigning the plurality of sub-tensors and the plurality of sub-filters to a plurality of processors for parallel convolution processing.
