Abstract: In some aspects, a set of input elements is obtained, at a rectified linear unit-activated neuron of a neural network based, on input data at the neuron. A first group and a second group of input elements are generated based on the set of input elements. The first group and the second group of input elements are associated with first weight elements and second weight elements, respectively. A first value is generated based on the first group of input elements and the first weight elements. A second value is generated based on the second group of input elements and the second weight elements. A third value and a fourth value are respectively generated based on a first operation and a second operation on the first value and the second value. An output of the neuron is generated based on the third value and the fourth value.
