Claim 8:
9. A method of cluster interlayer neural network tensor data flow path failure detection for use in a neural network processor, the method comprising:
providing a stream of tensors output from a previous layer to be forwarded to a subsequent layer;
calculating a cyclic redundancy code (CRC) checksum over said tensors wherein each CRC checksum is generated across a plurality of real features of a corresponding tensor;
writing said tensors and together with corresponding CRC checksums to a memory wherein said corresponding CRC checksums are stored as an additional CRC feature of each tensor;
reading said tensors and corresponding CRC feature including CRC checksums from said memory; and
verifying said CRC checksums and raising an error flag if a CRC checksum error is detected.
