Abstract
A memory-adaptive processing method for a convolutional neural network includes a feature map counting step, a size relation counting step and a convolution calculating step. The feature map counting step is for counting a plurality of input channels of an input feature map tile and a plurality of output channels of an output feature map tile for a convolutional layer operation of the convolutional neural network. The size relation counting step is for obtaining a cache free space size in a feature map cache and counting a size relation among a total input size, a total output size and the cache free space size of the feature map cache. The convolution calculating step is for performing the convolutional layer operation according to a memory-adaptive processing technique.
