| # Caffeinated Convolution | |
| The Caffe strategy for convolution is to reduce the problem to matrix-matrix multiplication. | |
| This linear algebra computation is highly-tuned in BLAS libraries and efficiently computed on GPU devices. | |
| For more details read Yangqing's [Convolution in Caffe: a memo](https://github.com/Yangqing/caffe/wiki/Convolution-in-Caffe:-a-memo). | |
| As it turns out, this same reduction was independently explored in the context of conv. nets by | |
