Abstract

Disclosed is a compression method for a deep neural network. The deep neural network comprises a plurality of layers. The method includes the following steps for each of at least one layer of the plurality of layers other than an input layer: reading parameters of that layer from a parameter storage space; reading a first feature map stored by an immediate previous layer from a feature map storage space; generating a second feature map on the basis of the read parameters and the first feature map; compressing the second feature map so as to obtain a third feature map; and storing the third feature map into the feature map storage space. Further, a chip based on the compression method and a medium are also provided.
