QActivation backward_only problems #24

Closed jacky4323 closed 6 years ago

jacky4323 commented 6 years ago

Hi guys,

May I ask some questions?

question1: ALL Q series layers are all coding by c++ code ? question2: QActivation layers with backward_only=True can back propagate quantization gradient,it means that you didn't write the calculate gradient of quantization function code in Qconvolution,Qfullconnectlayer?

thanks a lot

Best Regards, Peng

Hi Peng, to your questions, Q1: yes, the implementation is in C++, otherwise we cannot create the binarized models, you can check the model size here Q2: yes.
