Mixed precision artificial intelligence processor and operation method thereof

The invention provides a mixed precision artificial intelligence processor and a processing method thereof. The artificial intelligence processor comprises a first operation module, a second operation module and a control module. The first operation module is used for performing operation based on data with a first format. The second operation module is used for performing operation based on data in a second format, and the second format is different from the first format. The control module is coupled to the first operation module and the second operation module and is used for selecting the first operation module or the second operation module to perform operation based on input data according to the input data and an operation strategy. 本发明提供一种混合精度的人工智能处理器及其处理方法。人工智能处理器包括一第一运算模块、一第二运算模块及一控制模块。第一运算模块用以基于具有一第一格式的数据进行运算。第二运算模块用以基于具有一第二格式的数据进行运算，且第二格式不同于第一格式。控制模块耦接至第一运算模块及第二运算模块，用以根据一输入数据及一运算策略选择第一运算模块或第二运算模块基于输入数据进行运算。
