Fault Tolerant QR Factorization for General Matrices
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents a fault-tolerant algorithm for the QR factorization of general matrices. It relies on the communication-avoiding algorithm, and uses the structure of the reduction of each part of the computation to introduce redundancies that are sufficient to recover the state of a failed process. After a process has failed, its state can be recovered based on the data held by one process only. Besides, it does not add any significant operation in the critical path during failurefree execution.

QR-factorization of displacement structured matrices using a rank structured matrix approach
A general scheme is proposed for computing the QR-factorization of certain displacement structured matrices, including Cauchy-like, Vandermonde-like, Toeplitz-like and Hankel-like matrices, hereby extending some earlier work for the QR-factorization of the Cauchy matrix. The algorithm employs a chasing scheme for the recursive construction of a diagonal plus semiseparable matrix of semiseparabi...

As the general purpose graphics processing units (GPGPU) are increasingly deployed for scientific computing for its raw performance advantages compared to CPUs, the fault tolerance issue has started to become more of a concern than before when they were exclusively used for graphics applications. The pairing of GPUs with CPUs to form a hybrid computing systems for better flexibility and perform...
متن کاملA Parallel Qr-factorization/solver of Quasiseparable Matrices
Abstract. This manuscript focuses on the development of a parallel QR-factorization of structured rank matrices, which can then be used for solving systems of equations. First, we will prove the existence of two types of Givens transformations, named rank decreasing and rank expanding Givens transformations. Combining these two types of Givens transformations leads to different patterns for ann...
متن کاملImplementing Communication-optimal Parallel and Sequential Qr Factorizations
We present parallel and sequential dense QR factorization algorithms for tall and skinny matrices and general rectangular matrices that both minimize communication, and are as stable as Householder QR. The sequential and parallel algorithms for tall and skinny matrices lead to significant speedups in practice over some of the existing algorithms, including LAPACK and ScaLAPACK, for example up t...
متن کاملReprocessing a Postprocessed Elimination Tree to Obtain Exact Sparsity Prediction in Qr Factorization
Row-merge trees for forming the QR factorization of a sparse matrix A are closely related to elimination trees for the Cholesky factorization of ATA. Row-merge trees predict the exact fill-in (assuming no numerical cancellation) provided A satisfies the strong Hall property, but over-estimates the fill-in in general. However, here a fast and simple post-processing step for rowmerge trees is pre...
