Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems, and articles of manufacture to perform weight and activation compression and decompression are disclosed. An example apparatus includes memory, instructions in the apparatus, and processor circuitry to execute the instructions to execute a compression operation to obtain compressed data corresponding to weights in a weight matrix, and determine meta-data associated with the weight matrix, a first portion of the meta-data indicative of whether the weight matrix is compressed, a second portion of the meta-data indicative of a cache size of the compressed data, and a third portion of the meta-data indicative of the compression operation executed to obtain the compressed data.
