Sparse matrix-vector multiplication (SpMV) is a key operation in scientific computing and engineering ap-plications. This paper presents an optimization strategy to improve SpMV performance on the multi-GPU systems by adopting OpenMP threads and multiple CUDA streams. We propose an efficient scheme to control multiple GPUs jointly complete SpMV computations by making use of OpenMP threads. Moreover,...
Kernel independent component analysis (KICA) has an important application in blind source separation, in which how to select the optimal kernel, including the kernel functional form and its parameters, is the key issue for obtaining the optimal performance. In practices, a single kernel is usually chosen as the kernel model of KICA in light of experience. However, selecting a suitable kernel model...
Dimension reduction methods are often used to analyzing high dimensional data, linear dimension methods are commonly used due to their simple geometric interpretations and for effective computational cost. Dimension reduction plays an important role for feature selection. In this paper, we have given a detailed comparison of state-of-the-art linear dimension reduction methods like principal component...
Automatic image annotation and tagging is necessary for indexing and searching of images using querying a text. It is widely used in search engines like Google, Yahoo, Baidu, etc. Fast Image Tagging (FastTag) algorithm is proposed to accelerate image annotation process, while keeping the precision of automatic image annotation results. Feature mapping is used to map image features vectors onto higher...
This paper presents a performance modeling and optimization analysis tool to predict and optimize the performance of sparse matrix-vector multiplication (SpMV) on GPUs. We make the following contributions: 1) We present an integrated analytical and profile-based performance modeling to accurately predict the kernel execution times of CSR, ELL, COO, and HYB SpMV kernels. Our proposed approach is general,...
This paper presents an integrated analytical and profile-based CUDA performance modeling approach to accurately predict the kernel execution times of sparse matrix-vector multiplication for CSR, ELL, COO, and HYB SpMV CUDA kernels. Based on our experiments conducted on a collection of 8 widely-used testing matrices on NVIDIA Tesla C2050, the execution times predicted by our model match the measured...
Recently, a new representation for recognizing instances and categories of scenes called spatial Principal component analysis of Census Transform histograms (PACT) has shown its excellent performance in the scene image classification task. PACT captures local structures of an image through the Census Transform (CT), meanwhile, large scale structures are captured by the strong correlation between neighboring...
Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) has become an attractive coprocessor for scientific computing due to its massive processing capability. The sparse matrix-vector multiplication (SpMV) is a critical operation in a wide variety of scientific and engineering applications, such as sparse linear algebra and image processing. This paper presents an auto-tuning framework that can automatically compute and...
In automatic image annotation, it is often extracting low-level visual features from original image for the purpose of mapping to high level image semantic information. In this paper, we propose a novel method which integrates kernel independent component analysis (KICA) and support vector machine (SVM) for analyzing the semantic information of natural images. KICA, which contains a nonlinear kernel...
In this paper, we propose a method by engaging the one class support vector machine (OC-SVM) in the identification of diffractive optically variable images (DOVIs). OC-SVM, as a special SVM, can solve the problems of high-dimensional data sets and small sample size (SSS) with positive and negative unbalance training data. Image feature matrix is built by extracting image features from texture aspects...
