Abstract
A vector processor includes a coefficient memory and a processor. The processor has an Instruction Set Architecture (ISA), which includes an instruction that approximates a mathematical function by a polynomial. The processor is configured to approximate the mathematical function over an argument, by reading one or more coefficients of the polynomial from the coefficient memory and evaluating the polynomial at the argument using the coefficients.
