Originally created by @Tess314 on GitHub (Mar 19, 2026).
In the Model Optimizations chapter, I came across a mismatch between the values in Figure 13 and the text above describing it.
Text description: "As shown in Figure 13 performing a 32-bit floating-point addition (FAdd) consumes approximately 0.9 pJ, whereas a 16-bit floating-point addition only requires 0.4 pJ. Similarly, a 32-bit integer addition costs 0.1 pJ, while an 8-bit integer addition is significantly lower at just 0.03 pJ."
Figure 13 actual values:

Figure 13 shows integer operations, not floating-point operations. So either the figure or text needs changed to reflect this.
Hope this helps!
