DIGITAL NEURAL ARTIFICIAL NEURON FOR ARTIFICIAL NEURON NETWORK AND INFERENCE ENGINE HAVING THE SAME

摘要

A digital neuron for an artificial neural network, an artificial neuron, and an inference engine including the same according to an embodiment of the present invention perform a multiplication operation with an input value by receiving an integerized weight in a summation method of partial products obtained by bit shift operation. By doing so, it can be implemented with small digital hardware, power consumption can be reduced, and operation speed can be greatly improved.
