Abstract
Arithmetic unit design for linear arrays is a key design issue when supporting neural networks. However, there appears to be little quantitative evidence from the study of available linear array neural accelerator architectures to justify the choice of one arithmetic structure over another. This paper reports the results of a design study assessing cost performance trade offs in arithmetic unit design for linear neural network accelerators
