MATRIX PROCESSING APPARATUS

Methods, systems, and apparatus, including a system for transforming sparse elements into a dense matrix. The system includes a data fetch unit that includes a plurality of processors, the data fetch unit configured to determine, based on identifications of the subset of the particular sparse elements, a processor designation for fetching the subset of the particular sparse elements. The system includes a concatenation unit configured to generate an output dense matrix based on a transformation that is applied to the sparse elements fetched by the data fetch unit.
