Claim 0:
1. A computer implemented method using one or more hardware processors and a memory for activation function processing, the method comprising:
processing a first activation function in a first mode by referring to a shared lookup table that includes a plurality of function values of the first activation function,
wherein the shared lookup table includes at least a plurality of function values of a Sigmoid function or of a Hyperbolic tangent function; and
processing a second activation function in a second mode based on the plurality of function values of the first activation function in the shared lookup table, the second activation function being a different function than the first activation function,
wherein the processing of the first activation function and the second activation function is implemented using the one or more hardware processors and the memory.
