Abstract
Aspects of a neural network convolution device are described herein. The aspects may include a matrix transformer and a matrix multiplication module. The matrix transformer may be configured to receive an input data matrix and a weight matrix, transform the input data matrix into a transformed input data matrix based on a first transformation matrix, and transform the weight matrix into a transformed weight matrix based on a second transformation matrix. The matrix multiplication module may be configured to multiply one or more input data elements in the transformed input data matrix with one or more weight elements in the transformed weight matrix to generate an intermediate output matrix. The matrix transformer may be further configured to transform the intermediate output matrix into an output matrix based on an inverse transformation matrix.
