Abstract

A processing unit of an inference engine for machine learning (ML) includes a first data load steamer, a second data load streamer, an operator component, and a store streamer. The first data load streamer streams a first data stream from an on-chip memory (OCM) to the operator component. The second data load streamer streams a second data stream from the OCM to the operator component. The operator component performs a matrix operation on the first data stream and the second data stream. The store streamer receives a data output stream from the operator component and to store the data output stream in a buffer.
