Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for implementing static channel filtering operations upon image datasets transformed to frequency domain representations, including decoding images of an image dataset to generate a frequency domain representation of the image dataset; discarding coefficient values of one or more particular frequency channels of each image of the image dataset in a frequency domain representation; and transporting the image dataset in a frequency domain representation to one or more special-purpose processor(s). Methods and systems of the present disclosure may enable a filtered image dataset to be input to a second layer of a learning model, bypassing a first layer, or may enable a learning model to be designed with a reduced-size first layer. This may achieve benefits such as reducing computational overhead and time of machine learning training and inference computations, reducing volume of image data input into the learning model, and reducing convergence time.
