Short-Dot: Computing Large Linear Transforms Distributedly Using Coded Short Dot Products
Faced with saturation of Moore’s law and increasing size and dimension of data, system designers have increasingly resorted to parallel and distributed computing to reduce computation time of machine-learning algorithms. However, distributed computing is often bottle necked by a small fraction of slow processors called “stragglers” that reduce the speed of computation because the fusion node ha...
متن کاملError Analysis of Various Forms of Floating Point Dot Products
This thesis discusses both the theoretical and statistical errors obtained by various dot product algorithms. A host of linear algebra methods derive their error behavior directly from the dot product. In particular, many high performance dense systems derive their performance and error behavior overwhelmingly from matrix multiply, and matrix multiply's error behavior is almost wholly attributa...
متن کاملEstimating Analogical Similarity by Dot-Products of Holographic Reduced Representations
Models of analog retrieval require a computationally cheap method of estimating similarity between a probe and the candidates in a large pool of memory items. The vector dot-product operation would be ideal for this purpose if it were possible to encode complex structures as vector representations in such a way that the superficial similarity of vector representations reflected underlying struc...
متن کاملValidated Roundings of Dot Products by Sticky Accumulation
The dot product operation is very prevalent in scientific computation and has therefore been incorporated as a primitive operation in some languages. The implementation of the dot product operation by a sequence of IEEE standard multiplications and additions does not prevent a substantial accumulation of the round-off errors or warn the user about a catastrophic cancellation. We present the des...
متن کاملEnhanced mobility-lifetime products in PbS colloidal quantum dot photovoltaics.
Colloidal quantum dot (CQD) photovoltaics offer a promising approach to harvest the near-IR region of the solar spectrum, where half of the sun's power reaching the earth resides. High external quantum efficiencies have been obtained in the visible region in lead chalcogenide CQD photovoltaics. However, the corresponding efficiencies for band gap radiation in the near-infrared lag behind becaus...
