Description

Collection of fully-connected and matrix multiplication functions.

Fully-connected layer is basically a matrix-vector multiplication with bias. The matrix is the weights and the input/output vectors are the activation values. Supported {weight, activation} precisions include {8-bit, 8-bit}, {16-bit, 16-bit}, and {8-bit, 16-bit}.

Here we have two types of kernel functions. The basic function implements the function using regular GEMV approach. The opt functions operates with weights in interleaved formats.

Q7_Q15 version of the fully connected layer

Weights are in q7_t and Activations are in q15_t

Limitation: x4 version requires weight reordering to work

Here we use only one pointer to read 4 rows in the weight matrix. So if the original q7_t matrix looks like this:

| a11 | a12 | a13 | a14 | a15 | a16 | a17 |

| a21 | a22 | a23 | a24 | a25 | a26 | a27 |

| a31 | a32 | a33 | a34 | a35 | a36 | a37 |

| a41 | a42 | a43 | a44 | a45 | a46 | a47 |

| a51 | a52 | a53 | a54 | a55 | a56 | a57 |

| a61 | a62 | a63 | a64 | a65 | a66 | a67 |

We operates on multiple-of-4 rows, so the first four rows becomes

| a11 | a21 | a12 | a22 | a31 | a41 | a32 | a42 |

| a13 | a23 | a14 | a24 | a33 | a43 | a34 | a44 |

| a15 | a25 | a16 | a26 | a35 | a45 | a36 | a46 |

The column left over will be in-order. which is: | a17 | a27 | a37 | a47 |

For the left-over rows, we do 1x1 computation, so the data remains as its original order.

So the stored weight matrix looks like this:

| a11 | a21 | a12 | a22 | a31 | a41 |

| a32 | a42 | a13 | a23 | a14 | a24 |

| a33 | a43 | a34 | a44 | a15 | a25 |

| a16 | a26 | a35 | a45 | a36 | a46 |

| a17 | a27 | a37 | a47 | a51 | a52 |

| a53 | a54 | a55 | a56 | a57 | a61 |

| a62 | a63 | a64 | a65 | a66 | a67 |

| a11 | a12 | a21 | a22 | a31 | a32 | a41 | a42 |

| a13 | a23 | a33 | a43 |

Remaining rows are kept the same original order.

This opt function is designed to work with interleaved weight matrix. The vector input is assumed in q7_t format, we call arm_q7_to_q15_no_shift_shuffle function to expand into q15_t format with certain weight re-ordering, refer to the function comments for more details. Here we use only one pointer to read 4 rows in the weight matrix. So if the original q7_t matrix looks like this:

| a11 | a12 | a13 | a14 | a15 | a16 | a17 |

| a21 | a22 | a23 | a24 | a25 | a26 | a27 |

| a31 | a32 | a33 | a34 | a35 | a36 | a37 |

| a41 | a42 | a43 | a44 | a45 | a46 | a47 |

| a51 | a52 | a53 | a54 | a55 | a56 | a57 |

| a61 | a62 | a63 | a64 | a65 | a66 | a67 |

We operates on multiple-of-4 rows, so the first four rows becomes

| a11 | a21 | a13 | a23 | a31 | a41 | a33 | a43 |

| a12 | a22 | a14 | a24 | a32 | a42 | a34 | a44 |

| a15 | a25 | a35 | a45 | a16 | a26 | a36 | a46 |

So within the kernel, we first read the re-ordered vector in as:

| b1 | b3 | and | b2 | b4 |

the four q31_t weights will look like

| a11 | a13 |, | a21 | a23 |, | a31 | a33 |, | a41 | a43 |

| a12 | a14 |, | a22 | a24 |, | a32 | a34 |, | a42 | a44 |

The column left over will be in-order. which is:

| a17 | a27 | a37 | a47 |

For the left-over rows, we do 1x1 computation, so the data remains as its original order.

So the stored weight matrix looks like this:

| a11 | a21 | a13 | a23 | a31 | a41 |

| a33 | a43 | a12 | a22 | a14 | a24 |

| a32 | a42 | a34 | a44 | a15 | a25 |

| a35 | a45 | a16 | a26 | a36 | a46 |

| a17 | a27 | a37 | a47 | a51 | a52 |
