Abstract
Methods and apparatus are disclosed for enhancing a neural network using binary tensor and scale factor pairs. For one example, a method of optimizing a trained convolutional neural network (CNN) includes initializing an approximation residue as a trained weight tensor for the trained CNN. A plurality of binary tensors and scale factor pairs are determined. The approximation residue is updated using the binary tensors and scale factor pairs.
