Abstract:
An operation device includes a quantizer circuit, a buffer circuit, a convolution core circuit and a multiply-add circuit. The quantizer circuit receives first feature data and performs asymmetric uniform quantization on the first feature data to obtain and store in the buffer circuit second feature data. The quantizer circuit further receives a first weighting coefficient and performs symmetric uniform quantization on the first weighting coefficient to obtain and store in the buffer circuit a second weight coefficient. The convolution core circuit performs a convolution operation on the initial operation result, an actual quantization scale factor and an actual bias value to obtain a final operation result.
