A processor includes a front end to fetch an instruction. The instruction is to calculate a data point using inputs from a plurality of adjacent source data in a plurality of dimensions. The processor includes a decoder to decode the instruction. The processor also includes a core to, based on the decoded instruction, perform a plurality of tabular vector read operations to read the plurality of adjacent source data and perform a tabular vector calculation to execute the instruction. The tabular vector calculation is based upon results of performing the plurality of tabular vector read operations. The core is further to write results of the tabular vector calculation.
