Abstract
A system and method for performing sets of multiplications in a manner that accommodates outlier values. In some embodiments the method includes: forming a first set of products, each product of the first set of products being a product of a first activation value and a respective weight of a first plurality of weights. The forming of the first set of products may include multiplying, in a first multiplier, the first activation value and a least significant sub-word of a first weight to form a first partial product; multiplying, in a second multiplier, the first activation value and a least significant sub-word of a second weight; multiplying, in a third multiplier, the first activation value and a most significant sub-word of the first weight to form a second partial product; and adding the first partial product and the second partial product.
