Abstract
A method for generating a multilayer neural network including acquiring a multilayer neural network, wherein the multilayer neural network includes at least convolutional layers and quantization layers; generating, for each of the quantization layers in the multilayer neural network, quantization threshold parameters based on a quantization bit parameter and a learnable quantization interval parameter in the quantization layer; and updating the multilayer neural network to obtain a fixed-point neural network based on the generated quantization threshold parameters and operation parameters for each layer in the multilayer neural network.
