Abstract
Convolutional neural networks with powerful visual image analysis for artificial intelligence are gaining popularity in many research fields, leading to the development of various high-performance algorithms for convolution operators present in these networks. One of these approaches is implemented with general matrix multiplication (GEMM) using the well-known im2col transform for fast convolution operations. In this paper, we propose a multi-core processor-based convolution technique for high-speed convolutional neural networks (CNNs) using differential images. The proposed method improves the convolutional layer's response speed by reducing the computational complexity and using multi-thread technology. In addition, the proposed algorithm has the advantage of being compatible with all types of CNNs. We use the darknet network to evaluate the convolutional layer's performance and show the best performance of the proposed algorithm when using 4-thread parallel processing.
