Optimization and separation for structured submodular functions with constraints
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2015-02-24)Various kinds of optimization problems involve nonlinear functions of binary variables that exhibit a property of diminishing marginal returns. Such a property is known as submodularity. Vast amount of work has been devoted ... -
An Optimization Framework for Embedded Processors with Auto-Modify Addressing Modes
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2004-12-08)Modern embedded processors with dedicated address generation unit support memory accesses using indirect addressing mode with auto-increment and auto-decrement. The auto-increment/decrement mode, if properly utilized, can ... -
Optimization-driven emergence of deep hierarchies with applications in data mining and evolution
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2018-11-09)It is well known that many complex systems, in both nature and technology, exhibit hierarchical modularity: smaller modules, each of them providing a certain function, are used within larger modules that perform more complex ... -
Optimizing computational kernels in quantum chemistry
