Abstract
A system receives and executes a sequence of tensor instructions, for example, instructions for performing a neural network computation. The system may be implemented as a multiprocessor architecture, for example, hardware for performing a neural network computation. A tensor instruction specifies a tensor computation receiving one or more input tensors for determining an output tensor. The system stores a decimal position associated with a plurality of values of a tensor. The system performs the tensor computation of a tensor instruction to determine a plurality of values of the output tensor. The system collects statistics describing the plurality of values of the output tensor and determines a decimal position for the plurality of values based on the collected statistics.
