A mathematical method for building such a spline is described in detail. The method is based on cubic integral spline with a penalty function, which minimizes the sum of squares of the difference between the observed integrals of the unknown function and the integrals of the spline being constructed, plus an additional penalty for the nonlinearity (roughness) of the spline. This method has a matrix form, and this paper shows in detail how to fill in each matrix. The parameter\u0000 α\u0000 governs the desired smoothness of the restored function. Spline knots can be chosen independently of observations, and a weight can be defined for each observation for more control over the resulting spline shape. An implementation in the R language as function\u0000 int_spline\u0000 is given. The function\u0000 int_spline\u0000 is easy to use, with all arguments completely described and corresponding examples given.

Building on the ideas that underpin the RSVD, the recently proposed algorithm “randUTV” computes a\u0000 full\u0000 factorization of a given matrix that provides low-rank approximations with near-optimal error. Because the bulk of\u0000 randUTV\u0000 is cast in terms of communication-efficient operations like matrix-matrix multiplication and unpivoted QR factorizations, it is faster than competing rank-revealing factorization methods like column-pivoted QR in most high performance computational settings.

For shared memory,\u0000 randUTV\u0000 is redesigned in terms of an\u0000 algorithm-by-blocks\u0000 that, together with a runtime task scheduler, eliminates bottlenecks from data synchronization points to achieve acceleration over the standard\u0000 blocked algorithm\u0000 , based on a purely fork-join approach.

Ghattas, N. Petra","doi":"10.1145/3580278","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1145/3580278","url":null,"abstract":"Bayesian inference provides a systematic framework for integration of data with mathematical models to quantify the uncertainty in the solution of the inverse problem. However, the solution of Bayesian inverse problems governed by complex forward models described by partial differential equations (PDEs) remains prohibitive with black-box Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods. We present hIPPYlib-MUQ, an extensible and scalable software framework that contains implementations of state-of-the art algorithms aimed to overcome the challenges of high-dimensional, PDE-constrained Bayesian inverse problems. These algorithms accelerate MCMC sampling by exploiting the geometry and intrinsic low-dimensionality of parameter space via derivative information and low rank approximation. The software integrates two complementary open-source software packages, hIPPYlib and MUQ. hIPPYlib solves PDE-constrained inverse problems using automatically-generated adjoint-based derivatives, but it lacks full Bayesian capabilities. MUQ provides a spectrum of powerful Bayesian inversion models and algorithms, but expects forward models to come equipped with gradients and Hessians to permit large-scale solution. By combining these two complementary libraries, we created a robust, scalable, and efficient software framework that realizes the benefits of each and allows us to tackle complex large-scale Bayesian inverse problems across a broad spectrum of scientific and engineering disciplines. To illustrate the capabilities of hIPPYlib-MUQ, we present a comparison of a number of MCMC methods available in the integrated software on several high-dimensional Bayesian inverse problems. These include problems characterized by both linear and nonlinear PDEs, various noise models, and different parameter dimensions. The results demonstrate that large (∼ 50×) speedups over conventional black box and gradient-based MCMC algorithms can be obtained by exploiting Hessian information (from the log-posterior), underscoring the power of the integrated hIPPYlib-MUQ framework.","PeriodicalId":50935,"journal":{"name":"ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software","volume":" ","pages":"1 - 31"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2021-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48074933","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Rephrasing these methods as directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) is a particularly effective approach to study existing techniques, improve them, and eventually derive new ones. The accuracy of these matrix techniques can be characterized by the accuracy of their scalar counterparts, thus designing algorithms for matrix functions can be regarded as a scalar-valued optimization problem. The derivatives needed during the optimization can be calculated automatically by exploiting the structure of the DAG in a fashion analogous to backpropagation. This article describes GraphMatFun.jl, a Julia package that offers the means to generate and manipulate computational graphs, optimize their coefficients, and generate Julia, MATLAB, and C code to evaluate them efficiently at a matrix argument. The software also provides tools to estimate the accuracy of a graph-based algorithm and thus obtain numerically reliable methods. For the exponential, for example, using a particular form (degree-optimal) of polynomials produces implementations that in many cases are cheaper, in terms of computational cost, than the Padé-based techniques typically used in mathematical software. The optimized graphs and the corresponding generated code are available online.","PeriodicalId":50935,"journal":{"name":"ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software","volume":" ","pages":"1 - 35"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2021-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44753027","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its performance properties are demonstrated for 2D and 3D benchmarks of flow around a cylinder. The key ingredients of the GMG approach are the construction of the local Vanka smoother over all degrees of freedom in time of the respective subinterval and its efficient application. For this, data structures that store pre-computed cell inverses of the Jacobian for all hierarchical levels and require only a reasonable amount of memory overhead are generated.
