Pyramid Computer Solutions of the Closest Pair Problem

نویسنده

  • Quentin F. Stout
چکیده

Given an N x N array of OS and Is, the closest pair problem is to determine the minimum distance between any pair of ones. Let D be this minimum distance (or D = 2N if there are fewer than two Is). Two solutions to this problem are given, one requiring O(log( N) + D) time and the other O(log( N)). These solutions are for two types of parallel computers arranged in a pyramid fashion with the base of the pyramid containing the matrix. The results improve upon an algorithm of Dyer that requires o(N) time on a more pOWerfd COmpUter.

EMCSO: An Elitist Multi-Objective Cat Swarm Optimization

This paper introduces a novel multi-objective evolutionary algorithm based on cat swarm optimizationalgorithm (EMCSO) and its application to solve a multi-objective knapsack problem. The multi-objective optimizers try to find the closest solutions to true Pareto front (POF) where it will be achieved by finding the less-crowded non-dominated solutions. The proposed method applies cat swarm optim...

Efficient Parallel Solutions to Some Geometric Problems

This paper presents new algorithms for solving some geometric problems on a shared memory parallel computer j where concurrent reads are allowed but no two processors can simultaneously attempt to write in the same memory location. The algorithms are quite different from known sequential algorithms, and are based on the use of a new parallel divide-and-conquer technique. One of our results is a...

Optimum Partition Parameter of Divide-and-Conquer Algorithm for Solving Closest-Pair Problem

Divide and Conquer is a well known algorithmic procedure for solving many kinds of problem. In this procedure, the problem is partitioned into two parts until the problem is trivially solvable. Finding the distance of the closest pair is an interesting topic in computer science. With divide and conquer algorithm we can solve closest pair problem. Here also the problem is partitioned into two pa...

Parallel Spatial Pyramid Match Kernel Algorithm for Object Recognition using a Cluster of Computers

This paper parallelizes the spatial pyramid match kernel (SPK) implementation. SPK is one of the most usable kernel methods, along with support vector machine classifier, with high accuracy in object recognition. MATLAB parallel computing toolbox has been used to parallelize SPK. In this implementation, MATLAB Message Passing Interface (MPI) functions and features included in the toolbox help u...
