For each problem considered, the presentation includes the derivation of solution techniques, analysis of their efficiency, accuracy and robustness, and details of their implementation, illustrated through the Python programming language.This text is suitable for a year-long sequence in numerical analysis, and can also be used for a one-semester course in numerical linear algebra.

Book Topics in Large Scale Sparse Estimation and Control

Download or read book Topics in Large Scale Sparse Estimation and Control written by Tarek Rabbani and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thesis, we study two topics related to large-scale sparse estimation and control. In the first topic, we describe a method to eliminate features (variables) in $\ell_{1}$-regularized convex optimization problems. The elimination of features leads to a potentially substantial reduction in computational effort needed to solve such problems, especially for large values of the penalty parameter. Our method is not heuristic: it only eliminates features that are guaranteed to be absent after solving the optimization problem. The feature elimination step is easy to parallelize and can test each feature for elimination independently. Moreover, the computational effort of our method is negligible compared to that of solving the convex problem. We study the case of $\ell_{1}$-regularized least-squares problem (a.k.a. LASSO) extensively and derive a closed-form sufficient condition for eliminating features. The sufficient condition can be evaluated by few vector-matrix multiplications. For comparison purposes, we present a LASSO solver that integrates SAFE with the Coordinate Descent method. We call our method CD-SAFE, and we report the number of computations needed for solving a LASSO problem using CD-SAFE and using the plain Coordinate Descent method. We observe at least a $100$ fold reduction in computational complexity for dense and sparse data-sets consisting of millions of variables and millions of observations. Some of these data-sets can cause memory problems when loaded, or need specialized solvers. However, with SAFE, we can extend LASSO solvers capabilities to treat large-scale problems, previously out of their reach. This is possible, because SAFE eliminates variables and thus portions of our data at the outset, before loading it into our memory. We also show how our method can be extended to general $\ell_{1}$-regularized convex problems. We present preliminary results for the Sparse Support Vector Machine and Logistic Regression problems. In the second topic of the thesis, we derive a method for open-loop control of open channel flow, based on the Hayami model, a parabolic partial differential equation resulting from a simplification of the Saint-Venant equations. The open-loop control is represented as infinite series using differential flatness, for which convergence is assessed. Numerical simulations show the effectiveness of the approach by applying the open-loop controller to irrigation canals modeled by the full Saint-Venant equations. We experiment with our controller on the Gignac Canal, located northwest of Montpellier, in southern France. The experiments show that it is possible to achieve a desired water flow at the downstream of a canal using the Hayami model as an approximation of the real-system. However, our observations of the measured water flow at the upstream controlled gate made us realize some actuator limitations. For example, deadband in the gate opening and unmodeled disturbances such as friction in the gate-opening mechanism, only allow us to deliver piece-wise constant control inputs. This fact made us investigate a way to compute a controller that respects the actuator limitations. We use the CD-SAFE algorithm, to compute such open-loop control for the upstream water flow. We compare the computational effort needed to obtain an open-loop control with certain dynamics using the CD-SAFE algorithm and the plain Coordinate Descent algoirthm. We show that with CD-SAFE we are able to obain an open-loop control signal with cheaper computations.

Book PETSc for Partial Differential Equations  Numerical Solutions in C and Python

Download or read book PETSc for Partial Differential Equations Numerical Solutions in C and Python written by Ed Bueler and published by SIAM. This book was released on 2020-10-22 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Portable, Extensible Toolkit for Scientific Computation (PETSc) is an open-source library of advanced data structures and methods for solving linear and nonlinear equations and for managing discretizations. This book uses these modern numerical tools to demonstrate how to solve nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) in parallel. It starts from key mathematical concepts, such as Krylov space methods, preconditioning, multigrid, and Newton’s method. In PETSc these components are composed at run time into fast solvers. Discretizations are introduced from the beginning, with an emphasis on finite difference and finite element methodologies. The example C programs of the first 12 chapters, listed on the inside front cover, solve (mostly) elliptic and parabolic PDE problems. Discretization leads to large, sparse, and generally nonlinear systems of algebraic equations. For such problems, mathematical solver concepts are explained and illustrated through the examples, with sufficient context to speed further development. PETSc for Partial Differential Equations addresses both discretizations and fast solvers for PDEs, emphasizing practice more than theory. Well-structured examples lead to run-time choices that result in high solver performance and parallel scalability. The last two chapters build on the reader’s understanding of fast solver concepts when applying the Firedrake Python finite element solver library. This textbook, the first to cover PETSc programming for nonlinear PDEs, provides an on-ramp for graduate students and researchers to a major area of high-performance computing for science and engineering. It is suitable as a supplement for courses in scientific computing or numerical methods for differential equations.

Book Iterative Methods and Preconditioning for Large and Sparse Linear Systems with Applications

Download or read book Iterative Methods and Preconditioning for Large and Sparse Linear Systems with Applications written by Daniele Bertaccini and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2018-02-19 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes, in a basic way, the most useful and effective iterative solvers and appropriate preconditioning techniques for some of the most important classes of large and sparse linear systems. The solution of large and sparse linear systems is the most time-consuming part for most of the scientific computing simulations. Indeed, mathematical models become more and more accurate by including a greater volume of data, but this requires the solution of larger and harder algebraic systems. In recent years, research has focused on the efficient solution of large sparse and/or structured systems generated by the discretization of numerical models by using iterative solvers.
