Abstract
A deconvolution can be decomposed into multiple convolutions. Results of the convolutions constitute an output of the deconvolution. Zeros may be added to an input tensor of the deconvolution to generate an upsampled input tensor. Subtensors having the same size as the kernel of the deconvolution may be identified from the upsampled input tensor. A subtensor may include one or more input activations and one or more zeros. Subtensors having same distribution patterns of input activations may be used to generate a reduced kernel. The reduced kernel includes a subset of the kernel. The position of a weight in the reduced kernel may be the same as the positions of an input activation in the subtensor. Multiple reduced kernels may be generated based on multiple subtensors having different distribution patterns of activations. Each of the convolutions may use the input tensor and a different one of the reduced kernels.
