Convolution Primitive Example

This C++ API example demonstrates how to create and execute a Convolution primitive in forward propagation mode in two configurations - with and without groups.

Key optimizations included in this example:

  • Creation of optimized memory format from the primitive descriptor;

  • Primitive attributes with fused post-ops.
