The convolution computation is widely used in many fields, especially in CNNs. Because of the rapid growth of the training data in CNNs, GPUs have been used for the acceleration, and memory-efficient algorithms are focused because of thier high performance. In this paper, we propose two convolution kernels for single-channel convolution and multi-channel convolution respectively. Our two methods achieve high performance by hiding the access delay of the global memory efficiently, and achieving high ratio of floating point Fused Multiply-Add operations per fetched data from the global memory. In comparison to the latest Cudnn library developed by Nvidia aimed to accelerate the deep-learning computation, the average performance improvement by our research is 2.6X for the single-channel, and 1.4X for the multi-channel.
