  • Neural processing unit for binarized neural network
    Patent number: 11861486
    Abstract: A neural processing unit of a binarized neural network (BNN) as a hardware accelerator is provided, for the purpose of reducing hardware resource demand and electricity consumption while maintaining acceptable output precision. The neural processing unit may include: a first block configured to perform convolution by using a binarized feature map with a binarized weight; and a second block configured to perform batch-normalization on an output of the first block. A register having a particular size may be disposed between the first block and the second block. Each of the first block and the second block may include one or more processing engines. The one or more processing engines may be connected in a form of pipeline.
    Type: Grant
