Abstract
A computation apparatus includes a range table creation unit configured to create a range table in which a discrete value of a computation result obtained by applying a nonlinear computation on an input value corresponds to a range of the input value which may take the discrete value, and a search unit configured to search, when the input value is input, in the range table, for the range in which the input value is included and output the discrete value corresponding to the searched range.
