Abstract

Technologies for memory management of a neural network include a compute device to read a memory of the compute device to access connectivity data associated with a neuron of the neural network, determine a memory address at which weights corresponding with the one or more network connections are stored, and access the corresponding weights from a memory location corresponding with the memory address. The connectivity data is indicative of one or more network connections from the neuron.
