Abstract: An apparatus to facilitate acceleration of matrix multiplication operations. The apparatus comprises a systolic array including matrix multiplication hardware to perform multiply-add operations on received matrix data comprising data from a plurality of input matrices and sparse matrix acceleration hardware to detect zero values in the matrix data and perform one or more optimizations on the matrix data to reduce multiply-add operations to be performed by the matrix multiplication hardware.
