Abstract

Aspects for vector operations in neural network are described herein. The aspects may include a vector caching unit configured to store a first vector and a second vector. The first vector may include one or more first elements and the second vector may include one or more second elements. The aspects may further include a computation module configured to calculate a cross product between the first vector and the second vector in response to an instruction.
