US Patent 11443163 Method and system for executing neural network

The present disclosure provides methods and systems for executing a neural network. The method includes: receiving a plurality of input vectors of input data; generating, among the plurality of input vectors, an estimation value associated with a subset of an input vector based on a weight vector of the activation function; determining whether the estimation value associated with the subset of the input vector satisfies a threshold condition; and determining an output of the activation function based on the estimation value.
