Half Precision Arithmetic: fp16 Versus bfloat16 - Nick Higham
36.7 parsecs away

Travel
| The 2008 revision of the IEEE Standard for Floating-Point Arithmetic introduced a half precision 16-bit floating point format, known as fp16, as a storage format. Various manufacturers have adopted fp16 for computation, using the obvious extension of the rules for the fp32 (single precision) and fp64 (double precision) formats. For example, fp16 is supported by...
