Book GPU based Parallel Implementation of Swarm Intelligence Algorithms

Download or read book GPU based Parallel Implementation of Swarm Intelligence Algorithms written by Ying Tan and published by Morgan Kaufmann. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GPU-based Parallel Implementation of Swarm Intelligence Algorithms combines and covers two emerging areas attracting increased attention and applications: graphics processing units (GPUs) for general-purpose computing (GPGPU) and swarm intelligence. This book not only presents GPGPU in adequate detail, but also includes guidance on the appropriate implementation of swarm intelligence algorithms on the GPU platform. GPU-based implementations of several typical swarm intelligence algorithms such as PSO, FWA, GA, DE, and ACO are presented and having described the implementation details including parallel models, implementation considerations as well as performance metrics are discussed. Finally, several typical applications of GPU-based swarm intelligence algorithms are presented. This valuable reference book provides a unique perspective not possible by studying either GPGPU or swarm intelligence alone. This book gives a complete and whole picture for interested readers and new comers who will find many implementation algorithms in the book suitable for immediate use in their projects. Additionally, some algorithms can also be used as a starting point for further research. - Presents a concise but sufficient introduction to general-purpose GPU computing which can help the layman become familiar with this emerging computing technique - Describes implementation details, such as parallel models and performance metrics, so readers can easily utilize the techniques to accelerate their algorithmic programs - Appeals to readers from the domain of high performance computing (HPC) who will find the relatively young research domain of swarm intelligence very interesting - Includes many real-world applications, which can be of great help in deciding whether or not swarm intelligence algorithms or GPGPU is appropriate for the task at hand

Book GPU accelerated Data Mining with Swarm Intelligence

Download or read book GPU accelerated Data Mining with Swarm Intelligence written by Robin M. Weiss and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Swarm intelligence describes the ability of groups of social animals and insects to exhibit highly organized and complex problem-solving behaviors that allow the group as a whole to accomplish tasks which are beyond t he capabilities of any one of the constituent individuals. This natural phenomenon is the inspiration for swarm intelligence systems, a class of algorithms that utilizes the emergent patterns of swarms to solve computational problems. Recently, there have been a number of publications regarding the application of swarm intelligence to various data mining problems, yet very few consider multi-threaded, let alone GPU-based implementations. In this paper we adopt the General-Purpose GPU parallel computing model and show how it can be leveraged to increase the accuracy and efficiency of two types of swarm intelligence algorithms for data mining. To illustrate the efficacy of GPU computing for swarm intelligence, we present two swarm intelligence data mining algorithms implemented with CUDA for execution on a GPU device. These algorithms are: (1) AntMinerGPU, an ant colony optimization algorithm for rule-based classification, and (2) ClusterFlockGPU, a bird-flocking algorithm for data clustering. Our results indicate that the AntMinerGPU algorithm is markedly faster than the sequential algorithm on which it is based, and is able to produce classification rules what are competitive with those generated by traditional methods. Additionally, we show that ClusterFlockGPU is competitive with other swarm intelligence and traditional clustering methods, and is not affected by the dimensionality of the data being clustered making it theoretically well suited for high-dimensional problems.

Book Massively Parallel Evolutionary Computation on GPGPUs

Download or read book Massively Parallel Evolutionary Computation on GPGPUs written by Shigeyoshi Tsutsui and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-05 with total page 454 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) are metaheuristics that learn from natural collective behavior and are applied to solve optimization problems in domains such as scheduling, engineering, bioinformatics, and finance. Such applications demand acceptable solutions with high-speed execution using finite computational resources. Therefore, there have been many attempts to develop platforms for running parallel EAs using multicore machines, massively parallel cluster machines, or grid computing environments. Recent advances in general-purpose computing on graphics processing units (GPGPU) have opened up this possibility for parallel EAs, and this is the first book dedicated to this exciting development. The three chapters of Part I are tutorials, representing a comprehensive introduction to the approach, explaining the characteristics of the hardware used, and presenting a representative project to develop a platform for automatic parallelization of evolutionary computing (EC) on GPGPUs. The 10 chapters in Part II focus on how to consider key EC approaches in the light of this advanced computational technique, in particular addressing generic local search, tabu search, genetic algorithms, differential evolution, swarm optimization, ant colony optimization, systolic genetic search, genetic programming, and multiobjective optimization. The 6 chapters in Part III present successful results from real-world problems in data mining, bioinformatics, drug discovery, crystallography, artificial chemistries, and sudoku. Although the parallelism of EAs is suited to the single-instruction multiple-data (SIMD)-based GPU, there are many issues to be resolved in design and implementation, and a key feature of the contributions is the practical engineering advice offered. This book will be of value to researchers, practitioners, and graduate students in the areas of evolutionary computation and scientific computing.
