Abstract
A method of processing input data using a computing system. The method comprises obtaining association data which relates a kernel in a convolutional neural network to one or more known data patterns; conducting analysis of input data for the convolutional neural network to identify whether a region of input data corresponds to at least one of the one or more known data patterns; and determining whether to process the region of input data with the kernel in the convolutional neural network based on the analysis and the association data.
Claims18
A computer-implemented method of processing input data, the method comprising:
- obtaining association data which relates a kernel in a convolutional neural network to one or more known data patterns;
- conducting analysis of input data for the convolutional neural network to identify whether a region of input data corresponds to at least one of the one or more known data patterns;
- and
- determining whether to process the region of input data with the kernel in the convolutional neural network based on the analysis and the association data.
A system for processing input data, the system comprising processing circuitry for a convolutional neural network, wherein the processing circuitry is configured to:
- obtaining association data which relates a kernel in a convolutional neural network to one or more known data patterns;
- conducting analysis of input data for the convolutional neural network to identify whether a region of input data corresponds to at least one of the one or more known data patterns;
- and
- determining whether to process the region of input data with the kernel in the convolutional neural network based on the analysis and the association data.
A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions which, when executed by processing circuitry of a computing device, cause the computing device to:
- obtain association data which relates a kernel in a convolutional neural network to one or more known data patterns;
- conduct analysis of input data for the convolutional neural network to identify whether a region of input data corresponds to at least one of the one or more known data patterns;
- and
- determine whether to process the region of input data with the kernel in the convolutional neural network based on the analysis and the association data.
