Abstract
A processing device includes a processor core and a number of calculation modules that each is configurable to perform any one of operations for a convolutional neuron network system. A first set of the calculation modules are configured to perform convolution operations, a second set of the calculation modules are reconfigured to perform averaging operations, and a third set of the calculation modules are reconfigured to perform dot product operations.
