Zusammenfassung:Certain aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques and apparatus for performing mathematical operations on processing units based on data in the modulo space. An example method includes receiving a binary-space input to process (e.g., using a neural network or other processing system). The binary-space input is converted into a modulo-space input based on a set of coprimes defined for executing operations in a modulo space. A modulo-space result is generated through one or more modulo-space multiply-and-accumulate (MAC) units based on the modulo-space input. The modulo-space result is converted into a binary-space result, and the binary-space result is output.
