Abstract: A processor-implemented method for executing a hardware intrinsic programming instruction, includes performing one or more Boolean operations in combination with one or more permutation operations in response to the hardware intrinsic programming instruction being a single predicated compare-exchange-shuffle programming instruction. The method also includes outputting a sub-sorted list after the performing of the one or more Boolean operation in combination with the one or more permutation operation.

Abstract: A processor pipeline circuit in a processor for non-integral transformation of an image utilizing a single instruction is disclosed. The processor pipeline circuit comprises a data fetch circuit configured to receive a memory address of the input image and fetch a plurality of pixels of the input image. The processor pipeline circuit further comprises a weights access circuit configured to receive an element of the array of offsets and the interpolation type parameter. The weights access circuit is configured to determine weights to be applied to the plurality of pixels of the input image. The processor pipeline circuit further comprises a multiply and add circuit configured to calculate the output pixel of the transformed image by multiplying the plurality of pixels of the input image by the weights and summing each resulting product.
