Abstract
Systems and methods are described that facilitate performing feature extraction across multiple received input features to reduce computational overhead associated with feature processing related to, for instance, optical character recognition. Input feature information can be unfolded and concatenated to generate an aggregated input matrix, which can be convolved with a kernel matrix to produce output feature information for multiple output features concurrently.
