چکیده

to adapt their estimates to the particular nature of the integrand f(x). Within the past five years experimental evidence has appeared to suggest that adaptive quadrature algorithms are significantly superior to traditional quadrature formulas because they have a much wider domain of efficient applicability with little sacrifice in computational effort. A metalgorithm is an abstraction representing a large class of algorithms and is used to discuss and analyze the properties of adaptive quadrature algorithms. A novel feature of these algorithms is the important role that data structures (for the interval collection) play in their behavior. A study of reasonable selections of components for the metalgorithm shows that there are from 1 to 10 million potentially interesting, significantly distinct adaptive quadrature algorithms. This situation illustrates the extreme difficulty of the common problem of selecting the "best" algorithm for a particular computation. Our purpose is to announce convergence results for a variety of adaptive quadrature algorithms (including all 10 million mentioned above). Roughly

Parallel Generation of t-ary Trees

A parallel algorithm for generating t-ary tree sequences in reverse B-order is presented. The algorithm generates t-ary trees by 0-1 sequences, and each 0-1 sequences is generated in constant average time O(1). The algorithm is executed on a CREW SM SIMD model, and is adaptive and cost-optimal. Prior to the discussion of the parallel algorithm a new sequential generation with O(1) average time ...

Parallel Implementation of Particle Swarm Optimization Variants Using Graphics Processing Unit Platform

There are different variants of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm such as Adaptive Particle Swarm Optimization (APSO) and Particle Swarm Optimization with an Aging Leader and Challengers (ALC-PSO). These algorithms improve the performance of PSO in terms of finding the best solution and accelerating the convergence speed. However, these algorithms are computationally intensive. The go...

Adaptive Line Enhancement Using a Parallel IIR Filter with A Step-By-step Algorithm

 A step-by-step algorithm for enhancement of periodic signals that are highly corrupted by additive uncorrelated white gausian noise is proposed. In each adaptation step a new parallel second-order section is added to the previous filters. Every section has only one adjustable parameter, i.e., the center frequency of the self-tuning filter. The bandwidth and the convergence factor of each secti...

A Family of Variable Step-Size Normalized Subband Adaptive Filter Algorithms Using Statistics of System Impulse Response

This paper presents a new variable step-size normalized subband adaptive filter (VSS-NSAF) algorithm. The proposed algorithm uses the prior knowledge of the system impulse response statistics and the optimal step-size vector is obtained by minimizing the mean-square deviation(MSD). In comparison with NSAF, the VSS-NSAF algorithm has faster convergence speed and lower MSD. To reduce the computa...
