Abstract
Data processing apparatus having a binary neural network, BNN, circuitry to implement a BNN; the BNN circuitry having at least one instance of hidden layer circuitry responsive to trained one-bit weight values and input data values to generate a hidden layer output signal; each input data value has a one-hot n-bit data value, where n is an integer greater than one; the hidden layer circuitry is configured to generate the hidden layer output signal dependent upon an intermediate result of a selective inversion operation applied to each bit of a given input data value; the hidden layer circuitry has circuitry to generate a respective intermediate result as a first predetermined result value for the given input data value; and, for a group of trained one-bit weight values, circuitry to generate a respective intermediate result as a second predetermined result value for the given input data value.
