Abstract
A method comprising calculating output values of a plurality of linear nodes connected to a maxout node in a neural network, calculating a temporary maximum value among the output values during the calculation of the output values, and terminating the calculation of a final output value of a first linear node of the plurality of linear nodes in response to a condition that a difference between the temporary maximum value and a temporary output value of the first linear node exceeds a threshold value during the calculation of the output values.
