MUMBAI, India, June 13 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202517049891 A) filed by Cussen, Daniel, Santiago, Chile, on May 23, for 'special purpose integrated circuits and methods for matrix multiplication using only addition.'

Inventor(s) include Cussen, Daniel.

The application for the patent was published on June 13, under issue no. 24/2025.

According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "Special purpose integrated circuits and methods for matrix multiplication are disclosed. In some embodiments, a special purpose integrated circuit is constructed to perform mathematical operations. For matrix A and matrix B, an outer product of each column i of matrix A [vector Ai] and a corresponding row i of matrix B [vector Bi], for all i, is used to calculate all the products used for determining matrices A and B. A product matrix C (where A X B = C) is assembled using additions of the elements of the calculated outer products. Each outer product of Ai and Bi may be calculated using a series of vector-scalar products. Each vector-scalar product is calculated using the vector Bi and a selected element of Ai as the scalar. Thus, calculating the vector-scalar product for all the elements of Ai will produce the outer product of Ai and Bi."

The patent application was internationally filed on Nov. 29, 2023, under International application No.PCT/US2023/081655.
