Function Description

Calculates the weight size to be requested under the NCHW input of the Convolution operator. Only the Float16 type is supported. This API is only used to determine the size required for preprocessing the weight tensor, in order to achieve the optimal execution performance of the Convolution operator.

For example, for performance optimization, when the input shape is [2, 4, 8, 8], the function reshapes it to [64, 1, 16, 16]. As a result, the input is interpreted as having 16,384 elements.

aclnnCalculateConvolutionWeightSize

  • Parameters:

    Name Input/Output Description Usage Notes Data Type Data Format Dimension (Shape) Non-contiguous Tensor
    tensorShape Input Indicates the shape of the weight matrix loaded to the current convolution. Only 4D shapes in NCHW format are supported, and each dimension must be greater than or equal to 0. Empty tensors are supported. The returned weightTensorSize is 0. INT64 - - -
    transposed Input Indicates whether the convolution is a transposed convolution. Currently, the value must be false. BOOL - - -
    groups Input Specifies the number of groups that connect input channels to output channels. Value range: [1, 65535] INT64 - - -
    dataType Input Indicates the data type of weight after conversion. It must be ACL_FLOAT16. - - - -
    weightTensorSize Output Indicates the number of elements required for the weight, calculated based on the internal convolution processing logic. - INT64 - - -
  • Returns:

    aclnnStatus: status code. For details, see aclnn Return Codes.

    The first-phase API implements input parameter verification. The following errors may be thrown.

    Return Error Code Description
    ACLNN_ERR_PARAM_NULLPTR 161001 The input is a null pointer.
    ACLNN_ERR_PARAM_INVALID 161002 The input shape verification fails or other inputs do not meet the expectation.

Constraints

  • Deterministic computation:

    • aclnnCalculateConvolutionWeightSize defaults to a deterministic implementation.
  • Only forward Conv2D is supported.

  • Transposed convolution is not supported.

  • Empty tensors are supported. The returned weightTensorSize is 0.
