EXTENDED USE OF LOGARITHM AND EXPONENT INSTRUCTIONS |
摘要 |
Embodiments of the present disclosure are based on a recognition that some processors are configured with instructions to compute logarithms and exponents (i.e. some processors include log and exp circuits). Embodiments of the present disclosure are further based on an insight that the use of the existing log and exp circuits could be extended to compute certain other functions by using the existing log and exp circuits to transform from a Cartesian to a logarithmic domain and vice versa and performing the actual computations of the functions in the logarithmic domain, which may be computationally easier than performing the computations in the Cartesian domain. |
