Abstract
Techniques usable in optimization processing are described. A system includes an optimization processing unit (OPU). The OPU includes stochastic computing units and at least one programmable interconnect. Each of the stochastic computing units includes nodes and multiplication unit(s) configured to interconnect at least a portion of the nodes. The programmable interconnect(s) are configured to provide weights for and to selectably couple a portion of the stochastic computing units.
