Abstract

See full text

A processor includes a linear approximator and a front end including circuitry to assign linear approximation of a nonlinear function to a linear approximator. The linear approximator includes circuitry to divide a range of values for the linear approximation into a defined number of segments, perform linear approximation for each segment, move borders between the segments to reduce discontinuity moving along segments of variable length, repeat linear approximation for each segment until convergence, and return values for the linear approximation.
