APPARATUSES, METHODS, AND SYSTEMS FOR NEURAL NETWORKS

Abstract:

Methods and apparatuses relating to processing neural networks are described. In one embodiment, an apparatus to process a neural network includes a plurality of fully connected layer chips coupled by an interconnect; a plurality of convolutional layer chips each coupled by an interconnect to a respective fully connected layer chip of the plurality of fully connected layer chips and each of the plurality of fully connected layer chips and the plurality of convolutional layer chips including an interconnect to couple each of a forward propagation compute intensive tile, a back propagation compute intensive tile, and a weight gradient compute intensive tile of a column of compute intensive tiles between a first memory intensive tile and a second memory intensive tile.
