Abstract
A system and method of decoding information for data generated by a first part of a neural network. The method comprises decoding information for determining at least a starting layer of a second part of the neural network, the neural network including at least the first part and the second part, the second part being different from the first part; and determining the starting layer of the second part of the neural network based on the decoded information.
Claims7
A method executed by a computer, comprising:
- decoding data from a bitstream, the data having been generated by a first part of a neural network;
- and
- determining at least a starting layer of a second part of the neural network, the second part being different from the first part, wherein the neural network includes at least the first part and the second part;
- wherein the neural network includes a summation layer that generates one or more new tensors based on a plurality of tensors,
- wherein the starting layer of the second part of the neural network is not the summation layer, and
- wherein the data is to be processed by the second part of the neural network.
A decoder for decoding data from a bitstream, the decoder comprising:
- a decoding unit configured to decode the data from the bitstream, the data having been generated by a first part of a neural network;
- and
- a determining unit configured to determine at least a starting layer of a second part of the neural network, the second part being different from the first part, wherein the neural network includes at least the first part and the second part;
- wherein the neural network includes a summation layer that generates one or more new tensors based on a plurality of tensors,
- wherein the starting layer of the second part of the neural network is not the summation layer, and
- wherein the data is to be processed by the second part of the neural network.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium which stores a program for executing a method of decoding data from a bitstream, the method comprising:
- decoding data from a bitstream, the data having been generated by a first part of a neural network;
- and
- determining at least a starting layer of a second part of the neural network, the second part being different from the first part, wherein the neural network includes at least the first part and the second part;
- wherein the neural network includes a summation layer that generates one or more new tensors based on a plurality of tensors,
- wherein the starting layer of the second part of the neural network is not the summation layer, and
- wherein the data is to be processed by the second part of the neural network.
