Anderson Acceleration for Nonconvex ADMM Based on Douglas-Rachford Splitting

The alternating direction multiplier method (ADMM) is widely used in computer graphics for solving optimization problems that can be nonsmooth and nonconvex. It converges quickly to an approximate solution, but can take a long time to converge to a solution of high-accuracy. Previously, Anderson acceleration has been applied to ADMM, by treating it as a fixed-point iteration for the concatenation of the dual variables and a subset of the primal variables. In this paper, we note that the equivalence between ADMM and Douglas-Rachford splitting reveals that ADMM is in fact a fixed-point iteration in a lower-dimensional space. By applying Anderson acceleration to such lower-dimensional fixed-point iteration, we obtain a more effective approach for accelerating ADMM. We analyze the convergence of the proposed acceleration method on nonconvex problems, and verify its effectiveness on a variety of computer graphics including geometry processing and physical simulation.     

Location Related Signals with Satellite Image Fusion Method Using Visual Image Integration Method

Investigations were performed on a group utilizing (General Purpose Unit) GPU and executions were evaluated for the utilization of the created parallel usages to process satellite pictures from satellite Landsat7.The usage on a realistic group gives execution change from 2 to 18 times. The nature of the considered techniques was assessed by relative dimensionless global error in synthesis (ERGAS) and Quality Without Reference (QNR) measurements. The outcomes demonstrate execution picks ups and holding of value with the bunch of GPU contrasted with the outcomes and different analysts for a CPU and single GPU. The errand of upgrading the view of a scene by combining data caught from various picture sensors is usually known as multisensor picture combination. This paper displays a territory based picture combination calculation to consolidate SAR (Synthetic Aperture Radar) and optical pictures. The co-enlistment of the two images is first led utilizing the proposed enrollment method prior to picture combination. The paper displays a parallel execution of existing picture combination techniques on a graphical group. Parallel executions of techniques in view of discrete wavelet changes are created. Division into dynamic and motionless regions is then executed on the SAR surface picture for particular injection of the SAR picture into panchromatic (PAN) picture. An integrated image in view of these two pictures is produced by the novel region based combination plot, which forces diverse combination rules for each fragmented region. At long last, this picture is melded into a multispectral(MS) picture through the half breed skillet honing technique proposed in past research. Exploratory outcomes exhibit that the proposed strategy demonstrates preferred execution over different fusion algorithms and can possibly be connected to the multisensory combination of SAR and optical pictures.     

R2D2: A scalable deep learning toolkit for medical imaging segmentation

Deep learning has gained a significant popularity in recent years thanks to its tremendous success across a wide range of relevant fields of applications, including medical image analysis domain in particular. Although convolutional neural networks (CNNs) based medical applications have been providing powerful solutions and revolutionizing medicine, efficiently training of CNNs models is a tedious and challenging task. It is a computationally intensive process taking long time and rare system resources, which represents a significant hindrance to scientific research progress. In order to address this challenge, we propose in this article, R2D2, a scalable intuitive deep learning toolkit for medical imaging semantic segmentation. To the best of our knowledge, the present work is the first that aims to tackle this issue by offering a novel distributed versions of two well-known and widely used CNN segmentation architectures [ie, fully convolutional network (FCN) and U-Net]. We introduce the design and the core building blocks of R2D2. We further present and analyze its experimental evaluation results on two different concrete medical imaging segmentation use cases. R2D2 achieves up to 17.5× and 10.4× speedup than single-node based training of U-Net and FCN, respectively, with a negligible, though still unexpected segmentation accuracy loss. R2D2 offers not only an empirical evidence and investigates in-depth the latest published works but also it facilitates and significantly reduces the effort required by researchers to quickly prototype and easily discover cutting-edge CNN configurations and architectures.

A finite line source simulation model for geothermal systems with series- and parallel-connected boreholes and independent fluid loops

A model for the simulation of geothermal systems with parallel- and series-connected boreholes is presented. Mass and heat balance problems are formulated for each component in the system and are assembled into system-level problems. A third problem is formulated to account for heat transfer in the bore field, using the finite line source solution. This third problem is coupled to the system-level heat balance problem by an analytical solution of the heat transfer inside boreholes with multiple U-tubes. The simulation model allows for any number of independent fluid loops within the bore field or within individual boreholes and allows for combinations of specified inlet fluid temperatures and heat extraction rates in independent fluid loops. The model accounts for the axial variation of the fluid and borehole wall temperatures and heat extraction rates. The capabilities of the model are demonstrated through three example simulations.     

A thermal-aware VM consolidation mechanism with outage avoidance

Efficient energy and temperature management techniques are essential elements for operators of cloud data centers. Dynamic virtual machine (VM) consolidation using live migration techniques presents a great opportunity for cloud service providers to adaptively reduce energy consumption and optimize their resource utilization. In recent studies, power consumption readings of individual physical hosts were chosen as the main monitoring parameters in their allocation policies, whereas very few have considered host temperature, which has shown to have a negative impact on server reliability, as a migration criterion. In this work, a thermal-aware VM consolidation mechanism is proposed for resource allocation optimization and server reliability assurance. We consider the variability in host temperature as a migration criterion to avoid outage incidents via having better VM consolidations. Extensive simulation results obtained from CloudSim show the promising performance of the proposed mechanism in energy saving while reducing the number of server outage incidents due to fluctuations in host temperature.

针对缺乏PaaS平台下资源需求的有效预测与优化分配的问题，提出一种资源需求预测模型和分配方法。首先，根据PaaS平台中应用对资源需求的周期性来对资源序列进行切分，并在短期预测的基础上结合应用的多周期性特征，利用多元回归算法建立综合的预测模型。然后，基于MapReduce架构设计实现了一个Master-Slave模式的PaaS平台资源分配系统。最后，结合当前任务请求和资源需求预测结果进行资源分配。实验结果表明，采用该资源需求预测模型和分配方法后，相比于自回归模型和指数平滑算法，平均绝对百分比误差分别下降8.71个百分点和2.07个百分点，均方根误差分别下降2.01个百分点和0.46个百分点。所提预测模型的预测结果不仅误差小，与真实值的拟合程度也较高，而且利用较小的时间开销就可以获得较高的准确度。此外，使用该预测模型的PaaS平台的资源请求的平均等待时间有了明显的下降。     

Modulated gravity effects on nonlinear convection in viscoelastic ferromagnetic fluids between two horizontal parallel plates

In this study, the analysis of nonlinear stability with viscoelastic ferromagnetic fluids as working media is performed by finite-amplitude perturbations. The solution of the resulting nonautonomous system of the Lorenz model (generalized Khayat–Lorenz model of four modes) is obtained numerically to measure the amount of heat transport. The effects of elastic parameters, Prandtl number, modulation parameters, buoyancy magnetic parameter, and nonbuoyancy magnetic parameter on heat transport are studied. Heat transport is quantified through the average Nusselt number, which is determined by solving the scaled Lorenz model. As limiting cases of the study, the results of Newtonian, Maxwell, Rivlin–Ericksen fluids are determined. The results obtained have been presented graphically.
