Abstract
A method of processing input data for a given layer of a neural network using a data processing system comprising compute resources for performing convolutional computations is described. The input data comprises a given set of input feature maps, IFMs, and a given set of filters. The method comprises generating a set of part-IFMs including pluralities of part-IFMs which correspond to respective IFMs, of the given set of IFMs. The method further includes grouping part-IFMs in the set of part-IFMs into a set of selections of part-IFMs. The method further includes convolving, by respective compute resources of the data processing system, the set of selections with the given set of filters to compute a set of part-output feature maps. A data processing system for processing input data for a given layer of a neural network is also described.
