Abstract
A computer for computing a convolutional layer of an artificial neural network, includes at least one set of at least two partial sum computing modules connected in series, a storage member for storing the coefficients of at least one convolution filter, each partial sum computing module comprising at least one computing unit configured so as to carry out a multiplication of an item of input data of the computer and a coefficient of a convolution filter, followed by an addition of the output of the preceding partial sum computing module in the series, each set furthermore comprising, for each partial sum computing module except the first in the series, a shift register connected at input for storing the item of input data for the processing duration of the preceding partial sum computing modules in the series.
