A preliminary analysis of Cyclops Tensor Framework
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cyclops (cyclic-operations) Tensor Framework (CTF) 1 is a distributed library for tensor contractions. CTF aims to scale high-dimensional tensor contractions done in Coupled Cluster calculations on massively-parallel supercomputers. The framework preserves tensor symmetry by subdividing tensors cyclically, producing a highly regular parallel decomposition. The parallel decomposition effectively hides any high dimensional structure of tensors reducing the complexity of the distributed contraction algorithm to known linear algebra methods for matrix multiplication. We also detail the automatic topology-aware mapping framework deployed by CTF, which maps tensors of any dimension and structure onto torus networks of any dimension. We employ virtualization to provide completely general mapping support while maintaining perfect load balance. Performance of a preliminary version of CTF on the IBM Blue Gene/P and Cray XE6 supercomputers shows highly efficient weakscaling, demonstrating the viability of our approach.

A massively parallel tensor contraction framework for coupled-cluster computations
Precise calculation of molecular electronic wavefunctions by methods such as coupled-cluster requires the computation of tensor contractions, the cost of which has polynomial computational scaling with respect to the system and basis set sizes. Each contraction may be executed via matrix multiplication on a properly ordered and structured tensor. However, data transpositions are often needed to...

Consider the following consistent Sylvester tensor equation[mathscr{X}times_1 A +mathscr{X}times_2 B+mathscr{X}times_3 C=mathscr{D},]where the matrices $A,B, C$ and the tensor $mathscr{D}$ are given and $mathscr{X}$ is the unknown tensor. The current paper concerns with examining a simple and neat framework for accelerating the speed of convergence of the gradient-based iterative algorithm and ...
متن کاملAssessment of the Log-Euclidean Metric Performance in Diffusion Tensor Image Segmentation
Introduction: Appropriate definition of the distance measure between diffusion tensors has a deep impact on Diffusion Tensor Image (DTI) segmentation results. The geodesic metric is the best distance measure since it yields high-quality segmentation results. However, the important problem with the geodesic metric is a high computational cost of the algorithms based on it. The main goal of this ...
متن کاملA simple form of MT impedance tensor analysis to simplify its decomposition to remove the effects of near surface small-scale 3-D conductivity structures
Magnetotelluric (MT) is a natural electromagnetic (EM) technique which is used for geothermal, petroleum, geotechnical, groundwater and mineral exploration. MT is also routinely used for mapping of deep subsurface structures. In this method, the measured regional complex impedance tensor (Z) is substantially distorted by any topographical feature or small-scale near-surface, three-dimensional (...
