Abstract
Aspects for backpropagation of a convolutional neural network are described herein. The aspects may include a direct memory access unit configured to receive input data from a storage device and a master computation module configured to select one or more portions of the input data based on a predetermined convolution window. Further, the aspects may include one or more slave computation modules respectively configured to convolute one of the one or more portions of the input data with one of one or more previously calculated first data gradients to generate a kernel gradient, wherein the master computation module is further configured to update a prestored convolution kernel based on the kernel gradient.
