Abstract
A processing device is provided which comprises memory configured to store data and a processor. The processor comprises a plurality of MACs configured to perform matrix multiplication of elements of a first matrix and elements of a second matrix. The processor also comprises a plurality of logic devices configured to sum values of bits of product exponents values of the elements of the first matrix and second matrix and determine keep bit values for product exponents values to be kept for matrix multiplication. The processor also comprises a plurality of multiplexor arrays each configured to receive bits of the elements of the first matrix and the second matrix and the keep bit values and provide data for selecting which elements of the first matrix and the second matrix values are provided to the MACs for matrix multiplication.
