Abstract
A method and an apparatus for forward computation of a neural network are provided. The method includes: obtaining input data and weight data of at least one data processing layer; storing the input data by using a first texture storage structure to obtain first texture data; storing the weight data by using a second texture storage structure to obtain second texture data; and performing data processing of the at least one data processing layer based on the first texture data and the second texture data, to obtain output data of the at least one data processing layer. For the at least one data processing layer in the neural network, the input data and the weight data are respectively stored in corresponding texture storage structures.
