Abstract:
Aspects for matrix multiplication in neural network are described herein. The aspects may include a controller unit configured to receive a matrix-addition instruction. The aspects may further include a computation module configured to receive a first matrix and a second matrix. The first matrix may include one or more first elements and the second matrix includes one or more second elements. The one or more first elements and the one or more second elements may be arranged in accordance with a two-dimensional data structure. The computation module may be further configured to respectively add each of the first elements to each of the second elements based on a correspondence in the two-dimensional data structure to generate one or more third elements for a third matrix.
