Abstract:
A decision tree multi-processor system includes a plurality of decision tree processors that access a common feature vector and execute one or more decision trees with respect to the common feature vector. A related method includes providing a common feature vector to a plurality of decision tree processors implemented within an on-chip decision tree scoring system, and executing, by the plurality of decision tree processors, a plurality off decision trees, by reference to the common feature vector. A related decision tree-walking system includes feature storage that stores a common feature vector and a plurality of decision tree processors that access the common feature vector from the feature storage and execute a plurality of decision trees by comparing threshold values of the decision trees to feature values within the common feature vector.
