Genetically Improved Software

چکیده
Genetic programming (GP) can dramatically increase computer programs’ performance. It can automatically port or refactor legacy code written by domain experts and specialist software engineers. After reviewing SBSE research on evolving software we describe an open source parallel StereoCamera image processing application in which GI optimisation gave a seven fold speedup on nVidia Tesla GPU hardware not even imagined when the original state-of-the-art CUDA GPGPU C++ code was written. Sources and data sets are available on line. Fig. 8.1 Top: left and right stereo images. Bottom: Discrepancy between images, which can be used to infer distances.

Genetically Improved CUDA C++ Software
Genetic Programming (GP) may dramatically increase the performance of software written by domain experts. GP and autotuning are used to optimise and refactor legacy GPGPU C code for modern parallel graphics hardware and software. Speed ups of more than six times on recent nVidia GPU cards are reported compared to the original kernel on the same hardware.
متن کاملCapturing the Molecular and Biological Diversity of High-Grade Astrocytoma in Genetically Engineered Mouse Models
High-grade astrocytoma remains a significant challenge to the clinician and researcher alike. Intense study of the molecular pathogenesis of these tumors has allowed identification of frequent genetic alterations and critical core pathways in this disease. The use of novel mouse genetic tools to study the consequence of specific mutations in brain has led to the development of multiple represen...
