Diffusion Tensor Magnetic Resonance Imaging (DT-MRI) is an emerging technique that explores the structural connectivity of the human brain. The probabilistic fiber tractography based on DT-MRI data behaves more robustly than deterministic approaches in the presence of fiber crossings, but requires more prohibitive computational time. In this work we present a GPU-based probabilistic framework for...
Nowadays, Graphics Processing Unit (GPU), as a kind of massive parallel processor, has been widely used in general purposed computing tasks. Although there have been mature development tools, it is not a trivial task for programmers to write GPU programs. Based on this consideration, we propose a novel parallel computing architecture. The architecture includes a parallel programming model, named Gemma,...
The research on complex Brain Networks plays a vital role in understanding the connectivity patterns of the human brain and disease-related alterations. Recent studies have suggested a noninvasive way to model and analyze human brain networks by using multi-modal imaging and graph theoretical approaches. Both the construction and analysis of the Brain Networks require tremendous computation. As a...
Google's famous PageRank algorithm is widely used to determine the importance of web pages in search engines. Given the large number of web pages on the World Wide Web, efficient computation of PageRank becomes a challenging problem. We accelerated the power method for computing PageRank on AMD GPUs. The core component of the power method is the Sparse Matrix-Vector Multiplication (SpMV). Its performance...
Sparse matrix-vector multiplication (SpMV) is a fundamental operation for many applications. Many studies have been done to implement the SpMV on different platforms, while few work focused on the very large scale datasets with millions of dimensions. This paper addresses the challenges of implementing large scale SpMV with FPGA and GPU in the application of web link graph analysis. In the FPGA implementation,...
