How to compile matrix multiplication

[spacemaninhust]

I want to try to compile the simplest matrix multiplication, but it seems that the compiler does not support matrix multiplication, does anyone know how to write a test file, thank you very much！

A matrix multiplication is equivalent to a fully-connected layer. Try checking the code for that file to see how to do a matrix multiplication: https://github.com/illinois-impact/puma-compiler/blob/master/test/fully-connected-layer.cpp. You can also check the MLP code which cascades multiple matrix multiplications.

Thanks to @ielhajj , but I noticed that they are all matrix multiplication vectors, and there are no matrix multiplication. Do you know how to do that?

Ah, yes. the hardware only supports matrix-vector multiplication. If you want to do matrix-matrix multiplication, you need to break it down into multiple matrix-vector multiplications (i.e., declare an array of input vectors, one per column, and multiply by each of the vectors).

Thanks, I will try it.
