Abstract
Provided is a convolutional neural network system including a data selector configured to output an input value corresponding to a position of a sparse weight from among input values of input data on a basis of a sparse index indicating the position of a nonzero value in a sparse weight kernel, and a multiply-accumulate (MAC) computator configured to perform a convolution computation on the input value output from the data selector by using the sparse weight kernel.
