Abstract: Neural inference chips are provided. A neural core of the neural inference chip comprises a vector-matrix multiplier; a vector processor; and an activation unit operatively coupled to the vector processor. The vector-matrix multiplier, vector processor, and/or activation unit is adapted to operate at variable precision.
