  • Publication number: 20240143988
    Abstract: Dynamic data quantization may be applied to minimize the power consumption of a system that implements a convolutional neural network (CNN). Under such a quantization scheme, a quantized representation of a 3×3 array of m-bit activation values may include 9 n-bit mantissa values and one exponent shared between the n-bit mantissa values (n<m); and a quantized representation of a 3×3 kernel with p-bit parameter values may include 9 q-bit mantissa values and one exponent shared between the q-bit mantissa values (q<p). Convolution of the kernel with the activation data may include computing a dot product of the 9 n-bit mantissa values with the 9 q-bit mantissa values, and summing the shared exponents. In a CNN with multiple kernels, multiple computing units (each corresponding to one of the kernels) may receive the quantized representation of the 3×3 array of m-bit activation values from the same quantization-alignment module.
