Abstract: A device for in memory vector-matrix multiplication includes a memory array and in-memory logic. The memory array has at least two sections and stores a multiplier matrix. The memory array also receives and stores an input multiplicand arranged in a vector such that the operands of the vector-matrix multiplication are located on a same column of the memory array. Each of the sections is one of: a volatile memory array, a non-volatile memory array, a destructive memory array and a non-destructive memory array. The in-memory logic computes an output of the vector-matrix multiplication using the stored input vector and the stored multiplier matrix. The memory array is one of the following type of memory array: RAM, DRAM, SRAM, Re-RAM, ZRAM, MRAM and Memristor.

Abstract: A method for in memory computation of a neural network, the neural network having weights arranged in a matrix, includes previously storing the matrix in an associated memory device, receiving an input arranged in a vector and storing it in the memory device, and in-memory, computing an output of the network using the input and the weights.

Abstract: A method for an associative memory array includes storing each column of a matrix in an associated column of the associative memory array, where each bit in row j of the matrix is stored in row R-matrix-row-j of the array, storing a vector in each associated column, where a bit j from the vector is stored in an R-vector-bit-j row of the array. The method includes simultaneously activating a vector-matrix pair of rows R-vector-bit-j and R-matrix-row-j to concurrently receive a result of a Boolean function on all associated columns, using the results to calculate a product between the vector-matrix pair of rows, and writing the product to an R-product-j row in the array.
