متن کاملGPU-based fast Monte Carlo simulation for radiotherapy dose calculation.
Monte Carlo (MC) simulation is commonly considered to be the most accurate dose calculation method in radiotherapy. However, its efficiency still requires improvement for many routine clinical applications. In this paper, we present our recent progress toward the development of a graphics processing unit (GPU)-based MC dose calculation package, gDPM v2.0. It utilizes the parallel computation ab...
متن کاملHybrid Monte Carlo CT Simulation on GPU
Developing image reconstruction algorithms for diagnostic medical devices requires physically accurate and effective simulation tools. In this paper we present a hybrid Monte Carlo (MC) particle simulation method for Computed Tomography (CT) scanners. To meet the performance requirements, we combine several variance reduction techniques and tailor the algorithms for effective GPU execution. Var...
متن کاملParallel Monte Carlo Tree Search on GPU
Monte Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) is a method for making optimal decisions in artificial intelligence (AI) problems, typically move planning in combinatorial games. It combines the generality of random simulation with the precision of tree search. It can theoretically be applied to any domain that can be described in terms of state, action pairs and simulation used to forecast outcomes such as dec...
متن کاملFast and accurate quantum Monte Carlo for molecular crystals
Computer simulation plays a central role in modern-day materials science. The utility of a given computational approach depends largely on the balance it provides between accuracy and computational cost. Molecular crystals are a class of materials of great technological importance which are challenging for even the most sophisticated ab initio electronic structure theories to accurately describ...
