Abstract
A method for processing an input in an artificial neural network (ANN) includes receiving, at an operator layer of a set of operator layers, a first feature value based on the input from a decoder convolutional layer of a decoder. The operator layer also receives a second feature value based on the input from an encoder convolutional layer of a encoder. The method also includes determining, at the operator layer, a third feature value based on the input by performing an element-wise operation with the first feature value based on the input and the second feature value based on the input. The method transmits, from the operator layer, the third feature value based on the input to an encoder layer that is subsequent to the encoder convolutional layer. The method generates an output based on the third feature value based on the input.
