Abstract: An accelerator, an operation method of the accelerator, and an accelerator system including the accelerator are disclosed. The operation method includes receiving one or more workloads assigned on an accelerator, determining reuse data of the workloads based on hardware resource information and/or a memory access cost of the accelerator when a plurality of processing units included in the accelerator performs the workloads, and providing a result of performing the workloads.

Abstract: A processor-implemented neural network method includes: generating a bit vector based on whether each of a plurality of input activations within a neural network is 0; merging the bit vector into the input activations such that bit values within the neural network included in the bit vector are most significant bits (MSBs) of multi bit expressions of the input activations; merging the bit vector into weights such that the bit values included in the bit vector are MSBs of multi bit expressions of the weights; sorting the input activations and the weights based on bits corresponding to the MSBs; and implementing the neural network, including performing operations between the sorted input activations and the sorted weights.
