Abstract
A neural network computation apparatus includes a first processing block including a plurality of processing units that each perform a matrix multiplication operation on input data and weights, and a second processing block including a plurality of element-wise operation processing groups. The element-wise operation processing group selectively perform a first neural network computation operation and a second neural network computation operation. The first neural network computation operation comprises the matrix multiplication operation on the input data and the weights and an activation operation on a result value of the matrix multiplication operation, and the second neural network computation operation comprises an activation operation on the result value of the matrix multiplication operation, which is transferred from the first processing block, and an element-wise operation.
