Abstract: A second order neuron for machine learning is described. The second order neuron includes a first dot product circuitry and a second dot product circuitry. The first dot product circuitry is configured to determine a first dot product of an intermediate vector and an input vector. The intermediate vector corresponds to a product of the input vector and a first weight vector or the input vector and a weight matrix. The second dot product circuitry is configured to determine a second dot product of the input vector and a second weight vector. The input vector, the intermediate vector, the first weight vector and the second weight vector each contain a number, n, elements.
