The Ebullient Future of Computer Architecture\r\n\r\nAbstract:\r\nThe rate of people predicting the end of Moore\u2019s Law is\r\ndoubling every year, with alarmists predicting a cataclysmic\r\nend to computer systems as we know them. In this\r\ndark age of technology ambiguity, the world of computer\r\narchitecture has never been brighter. This talk will explore\r\nthe possibilities of computing systems that may incorporate\r\nquantum, cryogenic and DNA components.\r\n\r\nBio:\r\nDoug is currently the Lead Architect of the Microsoft\r\nQuantum Project where he is working to define the future\r\nof computing and storage. His group is utilizing the fundamental\r\nbuilding blocks of nature to build quantum computers\r\nand DNA based information storage that will revolutionize\r\ncomputing. In a previous life, Doug was an Intel\r\nFellow and Director of the Efficient Computing Lab at Intel.\r\nHe is responsible for creating the vision and concept for\r\nthe Xeon Phi family products, an architecture for highly\r\nparallel workloads including a high-performance scientific\r\napplication based on Intel Architecture processors.\r\nCarmean led the team that founded a new group at Intel\r\nto define, build and productize the Xeon Phi family.\r\nDoug joined Intel in 1989, he has held several key roles\r\nand provided leadership in Intel\u2019s microprocessor architecture\r\ndevelopment and product roadmap. As Nehalem\u2019s\r\nfirst chief architect, a next-generation x86 flagship processor,\r\nhe led the team during the early phases of architecture\r\ndefinition. Prior to this position, he was a principal\r\narchitect for the Pentium 4 processor where he completed\r\nthe memory cluster and power architecture definition including\r\nalgorithms, structures and overall functionality.\r\nCarmean holds more than 25 patents and many\r\npending in processor architecture and implementation,\r\nmemory subsystems and low power design. He\r\nhas published more than a dozen technical papers.","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Not Another Quantum Talk!

Whereas physical testbeds are costly to maintain and scale, and simulators fail to represent cyber misbehavior adequately, Sandia Emulytics blends Virtual Machine based testbeds, hardware in the loop, and simulators as needed to maximize fidelity and scale. Now a 10-year program, Sandia Emulytics supports heterogeneous modeling of IT, electric power, telephony, IoT, cyber-physical phenomena, and user behavior, and scales to millions of endpoints. The core toolset is open source and publicly available.

The central theme of this body of work is that underdetermined systems of linear equations can be meaningfully \u201cinverted\u201d if they have structured solutions. Two examples of structure would be if the unknown entity is a vector, which is sparse (has only a few \u201cactive\u201d entries), or if it is a matrix, which is low rank. We discuss some of the applications of this theory in signal processing and machine learning.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EIn the second part of the talk, we will show how some of these structured recovery results give us new insights into solving systems of quadratic and bilinear equations. In particular, we will show how recasting classical problems like channel separation and blind deconvolution as a structured matrix factorization gives us new insight into how to solve them.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EJustin Romberg is an associate professor in the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering.

Although there is often some intuition about what these salient features might be, validated protocols do not yet exist for reliably identifying these features. Further, efficient computational protocols do not yet exist for tracking their evolution during the various unit processing\/synthesis steps employed in the industrial manufacture of new products\/devices. In fact, the optimization of the material structure resulting in improved performance of engineering components is often the main motivation behind all activities in the field of materials science and engineering. Despite its important role, a unified computational framework for the quantification of the material hierarchical structure does not exist currently. \u0026nbsp;In this talk, I will describe a rigorous theoretical framework developed by my research group for the stochastic quantification of the material structure at any selected length scale, utilizing spatial correlations as the central metrics. This framework combines the use of n-point spatial correlations (or n-point statistics) and principal component analyses to arrive at objective, low-dimensional, representations of material internal structure in establishing core materials knowledge systems. \u0026nbsp;\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio:\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003C\/strong\u003EAfter earning a Ph.D. in mechanical engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 1992, Surya R.

limited resources, biological structures require an extreme economy of materials while still providing a robust tolerance to the defects that develop as a matter of course through growth and maturation. Evolutionary refinement has produced myriad structures with properties superior to those of manmade materials, properties contingent upon complex interactions between different levels of structural hierarchy. Through the application of natural design principles and versatile, growth-like additive manufacturing techniques such as 3D printing, we are poised to reimagine the standards of materials research and sustainable manufacturing. While nature provides a wealth of design opportunity, the sheer volume of possibilities presents an imposing hurdle; the need for efficient methods of down-selection is clear. Currently, finding an appropriate natural hierarchy requires extensive literature review and analysis; for bio-inspired design to become more amenable to engineers in general, there needs to be a better interface for structural investigations. We endeavored to develop a general approach to bio-inspired materials design research, and, moreover, to develop the groundwork for a database that would facilitate such research. The objective of this talk is to present the proposed data structure for the storage and comparison of hierarchical structures, and discuss computational approaches that can simplify the process of choosing appropriate structures for focused investigation.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp class=\u0022Pa1\u0022\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp class=\u0022Pa1\u0022\u003EJeannette Yen is the director of Georgia Tech\u2019s Center for Biologically Inspired Design (CBID).

The prediction of instabilities in the context of atomistic and homogenized atomistic systems shall be discussed. First, we develop an iterative, linear-scaling framework based on the Lanczos algorithm for determining the onset and mode of instability in atomistic systems. We utilize the proposed formulation to demonstrate that during nanoindentation induced dislocation nucleation, the trajectories of atoms through configurational space are significantly more complicated than those associated with pure slip. Further, through an example of hydrostatically triggered cavitation, we establish that localizing the stability analysis and employing cutoffs for the interatomic potential can both lead to spurious instabilities. Next, based on the Legendre-Hadamard condition, we develop a variant of the conjugate gradient method for predicting defect nucleation in homogenized atomistic systems. We utilize the proposed approach to determine the ideal strength of Aluminum when subject to uniaxial and hydrostatic stresses. In particular, we demonstrate that defects do not nucleate even in the presence of extremely large compressive hydrostatic stresses. Additionally, we show that smaller stresses are required for homogeneous dislocation nucleation in uniaxial compression compared to uniaxial and\u0026nbsp; hydrostatic tension.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EPradeep is a second year PhD student in the department of Civil \u0026amp; Environmental engineering at Georgia Tech, specializing in the area of Mechanics \u0026amp; Materials.

The Materials Knowledge Systems framework provides a viable approach for efficient exploration of the unimaginably large materials and process (i.e. manufacturing) design space through the development and implementation of efficient meta-models. Materials Knowledge Systems in Python (PyMKS) aims to seed and nurture an emergent materials analytics user group focused on homogenization and localization linkages central to virtually all multiscale materials modeling efforts. PyMKS provides high level access to the Materials Knowledge Systems framework through simple APIs and leverages open source scientific computing and machine learning packages in Python.

The hierarchical patterns of nature are diverse and fascinating. The question is: how does nature build such structures and can we mimic the methods to \u201cexpand\u201d the performance of materials? Hierarchical analyses searches for design principles by comparing how similar functions are achieved by organisms at various scales, in different habitats, or by different lineages.

The experimental component includes precision dry powder printing (DPP) for alloy composition control and Controlled Laser Melting (CLM) for consolidation to create a large set of physical alloy samples of unique composition under controlled processing conditions. The analytical component includes quantitative microstructural analysis and material property measurements of the fabricated samples. Together, these components form the basis of a powerful tool for rapid screening of microstructure-property-processing relationships as a function of alloy composition. The DPP and CLM techniques are presented along with a demonstration of the CHT technique on a family of aluminum alloys. The presented technique has the potential to serve as a valuable tool in advanced alloy development for AM as well as for streamlining process parameter optimization.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio: \u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAndriy Dotsenko is a Ph.D. student in the school of Mechanical Engineering, working with Dr. Suman Das in the Direct Digital Manufacturing Lab (DDML).

This talk describes our research into modeling the process-structure linkages for both the steady state and transient behavior of ternary eutectoid Al-Ag-Cu alloys. Our objective is to understand how solidifying aluminum alloys\u0027 microstructures are determined by the solidification velocity and alloy concentrations. We utilize state-of-the-art simulation results of ternary eutectoid Al alloy solidification (for further detail on the simulation see [1]). The simulations provide a data-rich transient solidification period that--in most cases--arrives at a steady state. In this talk I will present our methods and results for modeling the linkages between the simulated solidification process and the alloy microstructures.\u0026nbsp; I will also cover the ongoing challenges we have faced, which motivate the need of non-linear dimensionality reduction techniques for modeling transience in materials.\u003Cbr \/\u003E \u003Cbr \/\u003E [1] \u0026nbsp;- \u0026nbsp;H\u00f6tzer, Johannes and Jainta, Marcus and Steinmetz, Philipp and Nestler, Britta and Dennstedt, Anne and Genau, Amber and Bauer, Martin and K\u00f6stler, Harald and R\u00fcde, Ulrich (2015) Large scale phase-field simulations of directional ternary eutectic solidification.Acta Materialia (93), pp. 194-204.

This paper quantifies the effect of artists\u2019 different broadcasting activities on a leading social media site for music, MySpace, on music sales. We employ a panel vector auto-regression (PVAR) model to investigate the inter-relationship between broadcasting promotions in social media and music sales, while controlling for influential factors such as album prices, advertising in traditional media channels, artist popularity, and the impact of user-generated content. We characterize two types of broadcast messages under the MySpace context, personal and automated. We find that broadcasting in social media has a significant effect on sales even after controlling for the aforementioned factors, and more importantly the effect mainly comes from personal messages rather than automated messages. Our findings also point to the importance of conducting captivating conversations with customers in the organizational use of social media.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio:\u0026nbsp; \u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EYu (Jeffrey) Hu is an associate professor at Scheller College of Business, Georgia Institute of Technology.

Already, networks are a central tool in understanding a wide range of biological, social, and technological phenomena.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EUntil recently, most work in network science focused on simple statistical measures, such as degree distributions and correlations, centrality measures, etc. These have yielded great insight but they capture only a fraction of the complexity of real-world networks. Increasingly, progress on important questions about the structure, function and dynamics of networks depends on going beyond these measures to identify and understand large-scale structural patterns, like modules and hierarchies, and to leverage vertex and edge annotations. Generative models and scalable inference algorithms provide a powerful, statistically principled and data-driven approach to solving these problems.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EIn this talk, I\u0027ll describe my recent work on generative models of modular and hierarchical organization in complex networks. Such organizational patterns, it turns out, can simultaneously explain many of the statistical regularities most commonly studied in networks, can generalize a single network to an ensemble of statistically similar networks, and can make accurate predictions about missing links. Importantly, these models can be extended to include arbitrary degree distributions, edge weights, latent spaces and network dynamics, which opens many new questions for analysis.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBiographical sketch:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAaron Clauset is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science and the BioFrontiers Institute at the University of Colorado Boulder, where he is affiliated faculty in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology and the Department of Applied Mathematics.

Matrices of these systems are becoming larger, more ill-conditioned, and are often poorly structured, and indefinite. Multilevel methods have been advocated for handling some of these challenges. This talk will introduce a variety of multilevel preconditioners for solving linear systems of equations, with an emphasis on indefinite systems. We begin with the Algebraic Recursive Multilevel Solver (ARMS) and see how a class of \u0022coarsening\u0022 schemes can be adapted to this framework.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EILU-type preconditioners have difficulties for some types of indefinite problems. We will show how they can be adapted for problems arising from Helmholtz equations. Then a new class of methods based on low-rank approximations which has some appealing features will be introduced. The methods handle indefiniteness quite well and are more amenable to SIMD computations, which makes them attractive for GPUs.\u0026nbsp; We will then present an application in dynamic mean field theory (DMFT) where the problem is to compute the diagonal of the inverse of a matrix.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003Cstrong\u003EBio:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EYousef Saad is a College of Science \u0026amp; Engineering Distinguished Professor in the Department of Computer Science \u0026amp; Engineering at the University of Minnesota.\u0026nbsp; He holds the William Norris Chair for Large-Scale Computing and is a fellow of SIAM and AAAS.\u0026nbsp; He is known for his contributions to matrix computations, including iterative methods for solving large sparse linear algebraic systems, eigenvalue problems, and parallel computing.\u0026nbsp; Dr. Saad is an ISI highly cited researcher in mathematics and is the author of the highly cited book, Iterative Methods for Sparse Linear Systems.\u0026nbsp; For more information, please visit \u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/www-users.cs.umn.edu\/~saad\/\u0022\u003Ehttp:\/\/www-users.cs.umn.edu\/~saad\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Multilevel Algebraic Preconditioning Techniques with Applications"}],"uid":"27439","created_gmt":"2013-03-28 12:22:28","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 02:03:06","author":"Lometa Mitchell","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2013-04-05T15:00:00-04:00","event_time_end":"2013-04-05T16:00:00-04:00","event_time_end_last":"2013-04-05T16:00:00-04:00","gmt_time_start":"2013-04-05 19:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2013-04-05 20:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2013-04-05 20:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"1304","name":"High Performance Computing (HPC)"},{"id":"37041","name":"Computational Science and Engineering"},{"id":"47223","name":"College of Computing"},{"id":"50875","name":"School of Computer Science"},{"id":"50876","name":"School of Interactive Computing"},{"id":"50877","name":"School of Computational Science and Engineering"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1795","name":"Seminar\/Lecture\/Colloquium"}],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EHost: Edmond Chow; \u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:echow@cc.gatech.edu\u0022\u003Eechow@cc.gatech.edu\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"202971":{"#nid":"202971","#data":{"type":"event","title":"Center for Data Analytics Workshop - April 15","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp class=\u0022p1\u0022\u003EThe new Center for Data Analytics (CDA) at Georgia Tech will offer its first workshop on Big Data Research and Development to exchange information on expertise and activities related to data analytics at Georgia Tech, GTRI, and Emory University.

The simulation must combine the motion of the fluid, the intricate geometry of the blood vessels, continual changes in flow and pressure driven by the heartbeat, and the behavior of suspended bodies such as red blood cells.

This highlights a growing need to develop technologies that enable rapid and accurate characterization of RNA structure. Yet, available techniques that are reliable are also vastly limited, while the accuracy of popular computational methods is generally poor. These limitations thus pose a major barrier to comprehensive determination of structure from sequence.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ETo address this need, we have developed a high-throughput structure characterization assay, called SHAPE-Seq, which simultaneously measures structural information at nucleotide-resolution for hundreds of distinct RNAs. SHAPE-Seq combines a novel chemistry with next-generation sequencing of its products. Following sequencing, we extract the structural information using a fully automated algorithmic pipeline that we developed. In this talk, I will focus on SHAPE-Seq\u0027s analysis methodology, which relies on a novel probabilistic model of a SHAPE-Seq experiment, adjoined by maximum-likelihood parameter estimation. I will demonstrate the accuracy, simplicity, and efficiency of our approach, and will then present an algorithm that uses such structure mapping data to inform computational RNA secondary structure prediction.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ESharon Aviran is a postdoctoral researcher at the Center for Computational Biology at UC Berkeley, working with Prof. Lior Pachter.

I will describe, for example, network design problems motivated by challenging planning problems in wildlife conservation. In this context, I will present a network design optimization framework for stochastic diffusion processes, such as species dispersal, fire spread, information propagation, and disease outbreak. I will also emphasize\u0026nbsp; the unique opportunities for computing and information scientists to contribute to the new research area of computational sustainability and show how the challenges in this area call for an integration of work from different areas in computer science, such as constraint reasoning, optimization, algorithm design, machine learning, citizen science, and human computation.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EBistra Dilkina is a postdoctoral researcher at the Institute for Computational Sustainability.

In this talk I will give an overview of some of this work. I will first spend some time motivating game theoretic treatment of problems relating to cyber and describe some important modeling considerations. In the remainder, I will describe two game theoretic models (one very briefly), and associated solution techniques and analyses. The first is the \u0022optimal attack plan interdiction\u0022 problem. In this model, we view a threat formally as a sophisticated planning agent, aiming to achieve a set of goals given some specific initial capabilities and considering a space of possible \u0022attack actions\/vectors\u0022 that may (or may not) be used towards the desired ends. The defender\u0027s goal in this setting is to \u0022interdict\u0022 a select subset of attack vectors by optimally choosing among miti-gation options, in order to prevent the attacker from being able to achieve its goals. I will describe the formal model, explain why it is challenging, and present highly scalable decomposition-based integer programming techniques that leverage extensive research into heuristic formal planning in AI. The second model addresses the problem that defense decisions are typically decentralized. I describe a model to study the impact of decentralization, and show that there is a \u0022sweet spot\u0022: for an intermediate number of decision makers, the joint decision is nearly socially optimal, and has the additional benefit of being robust to the changes in the environment.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EFinally, I will describe the Secure Design Competition (FIREAXE) that involved two teams of interns during the summer of 2012. The problem that the teams were tasked with was to design a highly stylized version of an electronic voting system. The catch was that after the design phase, each team would attempt to \u0022attack\u0022 the other\u0027s design. I will describe some salient aspects of the specification, as well as the outcome of this competition and lessons that we (the designers and the students) learned in the process.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003Cstrong\u003EBio:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EYevgeniy Vorobeychik\u003C\/strong\u003E\u0026nbsp;is a Principal Member of Technical Staff at Sandia National Laboratories.

However, the networks we often encounter\u003Cbr \/\u003Ein either nature or engineering are typically very large. It is therefore\u003Cbr \/\u003Etempting to want to reduce such networks by excluding a part of their\u003Cbr \/\u003Eelements while preserving some important characteristic(s) of the original\u003Cbr \/\u003Enetwork. Such fundamental characteristic is the spectrum (collection of all\u003Cbr \/\u003Eeigenvalues) of the network\u0027s weighted adjacency matrix. Moreover, this\u003Cbr \/\u003Ematrix often contains all the known information about a network. Can one\u003Cbr \/\u003Ehope to reduce a network while maintaining its spectrum? It seems that\u003Cbr \/\u003Ethere is no hope because of the Fundamental Theorem of Algebra which says\u003Cbr \/\u003Ethat the spectrum of MxM matrix contains M eigenvalues. Therefore the\u003Cbr \/\u003Espectrum of a smaller matrix (corresponding to a smaller network) contains\u003Cbr \/\u003Efewer eigenvalues. However, it is possible to do and the recently developed\u003Cbr \/\u003Etheory of isospectral networks\u0027 reduction suggests new ways of networks\u0027\u003Cbr \/\u003Eanalysis and synthesis. In particular, a new equivalence relation in the\u003Cbr \/\u003Eclass of all networks was found. Besides (as a \u0022byproduct\u0022) the theory of\u003Cbr \/\u003Eisospectral networks transformations allowed to advance some classical\u003Cbr \/\u003Eareas of Mathematics as e.g. estimation of matrices\u0027 spectra. Another good\u003Cbr \/\u003Enews is that numerical implementation of the procedure of isospectral\u003Cbr \/\u003Ereduction is very simple and straightforward.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EProf. Leonid Bunimovich is a Regents\u0027 Professor of Mathematics at\u003Cbr \/\u003EGeorgia Tech.

However, much search activity is conducted within a much richer context of a current task focus, recent search activities as well as longer-term preferences. For example, our ability to accurately interpret the current query can be informed by knowledge of the web pages a searcher was viewing when initiating the search or recent actions of the searcher such as queries issued, results clicked, and pages viewed. We develop a framework that enables representation of a broad variety of context including the searcher\u0027s long-term interests, recent activity, current focus, and other user characteristics. We then demonstrate how that can be used to improve the quality of search results.\u0026nbsp; We describe recent progress on three key challenges in this domain: mining contextual signals from large scale logs; understanding and modeling the combination of short-term and long-term behavior; and learning a more robust model that mitigates the risk of applying the contextual model when a simpler model would suffice.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThis talk will present joint work with Filip Radlinski, Lidan Wang, Ryen White, Kevyn Collins-Thompson, Wei Chu, Susan Dumais, Peter Bailey, Emine Yilmaz, Fedor Borisyuk, and Xiaoyuan Cui.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio: \u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EPaul Bennett is a Researcher in the Context, Learning \u0026amp; User Experience for Search (CLUES) group at Microsoft Research where he works on using machine learning technology to improve information access and retrieval.

The project seeks to create abstractions, tools and techniques that (i) assist programmers and algorithm designers in achieving effective use of emerging hierarchies and (ii) leads to systems that better leverage the new capabilities these hierarchies provide.\u0026nbsp; Our abstractions seek a sweet spot that exposes only what must be exposed for high performance, while our techniques deliver that good performance across a variety of platforms and platform-sharing scenarios.\u0026nbsp; Key enablers of our approach include internally-deterministic parallel programming, new cache abstractions, novel thread schedulers, and effective use of available flash devices (and other NVM technologies such as phase change memory).\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp; Our performance evaluations consider a variety of application kernels involving sorting, graphs, geometry, graphics, string processing, and database operations.\u0026nbsp; This talk surveys our key results to date, covering ~10 conference papers.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio\u003C\/strong\u003E:\u0026nbsp; Phillip B.

Although many variants of stochastic gradient descent have been proposed, most of them require projecting the intermediate solution at each iteration to ensure that the obtained solution stay within the feasible domain. For complex domains (e.g. SDP cone), the projection step can be computationally expensive, making stochastic gradient descent unattractive for large-scale optimization problems. In this talk, I will discuss our work that explicitly addresses this limitation of stochastic gradient descent.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp class=\u0022p1\u0022\u003EThe key feature of the proposed algorithm is that it does not need to project the intermediate solution to the feasible domain.

Our analysis shows that with a high probability, the proposed algorithms achieve an O(1\/sqrt{T}) convergence rate for general convex optimization, and an O([ln T]\/T ) rate for strongly convex functions under mild conditions about the domain and the objective function.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp class=\u0022p1\u0022\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp class=\u0022p1\u0022\u003EDr. Jin is an associate professor in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Michigan State University.

Smart grid architecture should support distributed generation units, renewable energy, electric vehicles and demand-response mechanisms. In this talk, I will first outline my research projects on different aspects of the smart grid, namely control \u0026amp; stability of distributed generation units, renewable \u0026amp; storage, operation planning, and electricity market. Then, I will mainly focus on the operation planning problem.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EOptimization problems for the operation planning such as resource allocation, state estimation and scheduling, are hard to solve due to the nonlinearity introduced by physical laws. I will show that there is an efficient method to tackle this nonlinearity by exploiting the physics of a power circuit. In particular, I will talk about the optimal power flow (OPF) problem, which has been studied for nearly 5 decades. Despite the fact that OPF is NP-hard in the worst case, I will prove that practical OPF problems are likely solvable in polynomial time due to the physics of a power network. I will derive various theories by studying different layers of an electrical network separately. Finally, I will talk about our recent solver for large-scale OPF problems, which is able to globally solve a 10,000-bus nonlinear (non-convex) OPF problem in a fraction of a second on a single-core machine.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio:\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EJavad Lavaei received the B.Sc. degree in electronics engineering from the Sharif University of Technology in 2003 and the M.A.Sc. degree in electrical engineering from Concordia University in 2007.

With these technologies, it is now possible to sequence a few billion DNA fragments in a single experiment. This quantum leap in throughput creates many technical challenges: 1) instrumentation-specific challenges such as error correction; 2) reinventing methodologies for classic applications such as genome assembly; 3) challenges due to rapid scale up in scope and number of research projects driven by lower economic costs; and 4) expanding the repertoire of applications \u2013 e.g., personalized genome sequencing, and digital expression analysis for systems biology. The rapid development of next generation technologies, and the richness and diversity of their applications, has created a pressing need for new bioinformatics tools and computational methods capable of dealing with large volumes of data.

Different from most other approaches that mainly rely on local cues from pixels or superpixels, our approach starts from multiple binary segmentations that capture important global cues, such as the shape of an object.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EThese binary segmentations, generated by the unsupervised Constrained Parametric Min-Cut (CPMC) algorithm, cover a spectrum of different locations and segment sizes. In the learning phase, the segmentations are first filtered with a global \u0022objectness\u0022 filter, then fed into a kernel-based learning framework that continuously predicts the overlap of each segmentation with each particular object category. Finally, cues from multiple highly-ranked segmentations are used to determine the classification of each pixel. From 2009 to 2011, this approach has won the prestigious PASCAL VOC Segmentation Challenge three times in a row.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":"","field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"CSE Seminar: Semantic Image Segmentation by Ranking Multiple Figure-Ground Segment Hypotheses"}],"uid":"27592","created_gmt":"2012-02-06 14:34:11","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 01:57:52","author":"Joshua Preston","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2012-02-10T13:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2012-02-10T14:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2012-02-10T14:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2012-02-10 18:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2012-02-10 19:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2012-02-10 19:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"groups":[{"id":"1304","name":"High Performance Computing (HPC)"},{"id":"47223","name":"College of Computing"},{"id":"50877","name":"School of Computational Science and Engineering"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:lebanon@cc.gatech.edu\u0022\u003EDr. Guy Lebanon\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"98431":{"#nid":"98431","#data":{"type":"event","title":"Building next-generation software for computational chemistry using rank-reduction, multicore, and GPU computing techniques","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ESpeaker\u003C\/strong\u003E: David Sherrill (School of Chemistry and Biochemistry) (\u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/www.chemistry.gatech.edu\/faculty\/Sherrill\/\u0022\u003EView his website\u003C\/a\u003E)\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ETitle\u003C\/strong\u003E: Building next-generation software for computational chemistry using rank-reduction, multicore, and GPU computing techniques\u003C\/p\u003E\n\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAbstract\u003C\/strong\u003E: This talk will describe the development of the PSI4 computational chemistry program, aimed at the efficient evaluation of accurate quantum models of molecules. This open-source software is targeted for initial release in early 2012 and is the result of a multi-site collaboration involving several universities and government labs. Various rank-reduction techniques have been extremely helpful in improving computational efficiency by replacing large 4-index tensors with much more compact 3-index tensors. Although this trades reduced memory requirements for increased flops in some cases, it can also lead to significant reduction in flops in many terms. Speedups due to rank reduction in intermolecular analysis will be analyzed in detail. Preliminary results of efforts in shared-memory parallelization and GPU computing will also be presented.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBio\u003C\/strong\u003E: C.

On parallel computers, this calculation is normally not load balanced because the data partitioning required for load balance is in conflict with the partitioning needed for the much more expensive \u0022nonbonded\u0022 (electrostatic and van der Waals) force calculation.  On Anton, a specialized parallel machine for MD calculations, the situation has changed:  the nonbonded component of the calculation has been dramatically accelerated and the remaining bonded component can often be a non-negligible determinant of overall performance.  This talk describes the challenges in load balancing the bonded force calculations on Anton.  In addition to the usual considerations of balancing load and minimizing communication across processors, we consider balancing the storage required per node, to allow larger chemical systems to be simulated.  This interesting combinatorial problem arises because many bond terms share the same parameter data and this data does not need to be duplicated within a node.  We also consider the hierarchical problem of partitioning the data among Anton nodes and its relation to partitioning the data within each node for computation by multiple cores.  Additional resource limitations at this level also lead to interesting (and messy!) combinatorial problems for load balance.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n\u003Cstrong\u003E\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":null,"format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"This talk describes the challenges in load balancing the bonded force calculations on Anton, a specialized parallel machine for MD calculations.","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Title: Load-Balanced Bonded Force Calculations on Anton"}],"uid":"27301","created_gmt":"2010-05-20 11:44:39","changed_gmt":"2016-10-08 01:51:29","author":"Elizabeth Campell","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","field_event_time":{"event_time_start":"2010-03-02T13:00:00-05:00","event_time_end":"2010-03-02T14:00:00-05:00","event_time_end_last":"2010-03-02T14:00:00-05:00","gmt_time_start":"2010-03-02 18:00:00","gmt_time_end":"2010-03-02 19:00:00","gmt_time_end_last":"2010-03-02 19:00:00","rrule":null,"timezone":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"related_links":[{"url":"http:\/\/www.edmondchow.com\/","title":"Edmond Chow Bio"}],"groups":[{"id":"1304","name":"High Performance Computing (HPC)"},{"id":"47223","name":"College of Computing"}],"categories":[],"keywords":[{"id":"208","name":"computing"},{"id":"702","name":"hpc"}],"core_research_areas":[],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[{"id":"1795","name":"Seminar\/Lecture\/Colloquium"}],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[{"value":"\u003Cstrong\u003EGeorge Biros\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003EDepartment of Biomedical Engineering\/Computational Science and Engineering Division (joint appointment)\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022mailto:biros@cc.gatech.edu\u0022\u003EContact George Biros\u003C\/a\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003E404-894-4233\u003C\/strong\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"email":[],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}},"56095":{"#nid":"56095","#data":{"type":"event","title":"CSE Seminar Speaker: Frank Dehne, Carleton University, Ottawa","body":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003ECSE Seminar Speaker\n\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EBy: Frank Dehne\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nCarleton University, Ottawa\n\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003ETitle: Parallel Data Warehousing\/OLAP and Parallel Bioinformatics\u003C\/strong\u003E\n\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EAbstract\u003C\/strong\u003E\u003Cbr \/\u003E\nThis presentation discusses applications of parallel algorithms design in parallel data warehousing\/OLAP and parallel bioinformatics:\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n(1) The building of a parallel data cube protype for parallel data warehousing and OLAP.\u003Cbr \/\u003E\n(2) A global investigation of protein-protein interactions in yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae using re-occurring short polypeptide sequences.
