Abstract
Embodiments described herein provide a processing apparatus comprising compute logic to generate output feature map data for a convolutional neural network (CNN) and write the feature map data to a memory buffer; a direct memory access (DMA) controller including a feature map encoder, the DMA controller to read the feature map data from the memory buffer, encode the feature map data using one of multiple encode algorithms, and write encoded feature map data to memory coupled with the processing apparatus; and wherein the compute logic is to read the encoded feature map data from the memory in an encoded format and decode the encoded feature map data while reading the encoded feature map data.
