Although fixed-point arithmetic logic (which is usually implemented as just integer arithmetic, perhaps with some saturation and/or rounding logic added) is generally faster and more area efficient, ...

Why floating point is important for developing machine-learning models. What floating-point formats are used with machine learning? Over the last two decades, compute-intensive artificial-intelligence ...

The traditional view is that the floating-point number format is superior to the fixed-point number format when it comes to representing sound digitally. In fact, while it may be counter-intuitive, ...
