Abstract

An apparatus for computing functions using polynomial-based approximation, comprising one or more processing circuitries configured for computing a polynomial-based approximant approximating a function by executing one or more iterations. Each iteration comprising computing the polynomial-based approximant using scaled fixed-point unit(s) according to a constructed set of coefficients, minimizing an approximation error of the computed polynomial-based approximant compared to the function while complying with one or more constraints selected from a group comprising at least: an accuracy, a compute graph size, a computation complexity, and a hardware utilization of the processing circuitry(s), adjusting one or more of the coefficients in case the approximation error is incompliant with the constraint(s) and initiating another iteration. The polynomial-based approximant and its adjusted set of coefficients for which the computed polynomial-based approximant complies with the constraint(s) may be output to one or more processing circuitries configured to approximate the function by computing the polynomial-based approximant.
