Abstract
A computer-implemented method, performed in a neural processing system comprising control processor circuitry and arithmetic logic circuitry, of performing a convolution between an input feature map (IFM) and convolutional filter data, resulting in an output feature map (OFM). The method includes, obtaining in the control processor circuitry, dimensional characteristic parameters relating to dimensions of input work batch data arrays and positional characteristic parameters relating to positions of feature map content within the input work batches. The method also includes, in the arithmetic logic circuitry, performing convolutions between the input work batches, generated from the IFM based on the dimensional characteristic parameters and the positional characteristic parameters, and work batch filter data arrays corresponding to the filter to produce a plurality of output work batch data arrays. The plurality of output work batches are combined to generate an OFM.
