Abstract

Batch normalization (BN) layer fusion and quantization method for model inference in artificial intelligence (AI) network engine are disclosed. A method for a neural network (NN) includes merging batch normalization (BN) layer parameters with NN layer parameters and computing merged BN layer and NN layer functions using the merged BN and NN layer parameters. A rectified linear unit (RELU) function can be merged with the BN and NN layer functions.
