Abstract
A method to implement a fixed-point scale layer in a neural network for data processing is provided in the present disclosure. The method includes: receiving fixed-point input data over a channel of a standalone floating-point scale layer, and converting the floating-point input data into fixed-point input data of the standalone floating-point scale layer; obtaining fixed-point quantization parameters in each channel based on the input data and floating-point parameters γ, βin each channel; converting the standalone floating-point scale layer based on the fixed-point quantization parameters into a fixed-point scale layer for processing the fixed-point input data to generate fixed-point output data; and mapping the fixed-point scale layer to a fixed-point convolution layer and the computation of convolution is done by matrix multiplication that can be executed on a GEMM engine.
