What kind of computations does Ethos-U55 NPU perform

mastupristi

What kind of computations does Ethos-U55 NPU perform? I mean: matrix computation? Trigonometric computation? Multiply-and-accumulate? What types of data is it capable of using? Fixed-point or floating-point? How many bits?

best regards

    Hi Sandeep,

    thank you for the answer.
    My real question I think has already been answered negatively unfortunately.

    In fact I don't really need ML or NN. I do audio signal processing. And so I explore the possibility of using Ethos-U to do general purpose processing (somewhat like GPUs do with OpenCL).

    In fact, for numerical accuracy we cannot go below FP32. So I think having 8 bits for coefficients and 16 bits for samples is too little for my MAC needs
