Abstract
Devices and methods for filtering data include calculating intermediate input values from input elements using a transformation function. The transformation function is based at least in part on a size of the filter and a number of filter outputs. Intermediate filter values are calculated from filter elements of the filter using the transformation function. Each intermediate input value is multiplied with a respective intermediate filter value to form intermediate values. These intermediate values are combined with each other using the transformation function to determine one or more output values.
