Abstract

Disclosed is a method and system for achieving optimal separable convolutions, the method is applied to image analyzing and processing and comprises steps of: inputting an image to be analyzed and processed; calculating three sets of parameters of a separable convolution: an internal number of groups, a channel size and a kernel size of each separated convolution, and achieving optimal separable convolution process; and performing deep neural network image process. The method and system in the present disclosure adopts implementation of separable convolution which efficiently reduces a computational complexity of deep neural network process. Comparing to the FFT and low rank approximation approaches, the method and system disclosed in the present disclosure is efficient for both small and large kernel sizes and shall not require a pre-trained model to operate on and can be deployed to applications where resources are highly constrained.
