Co-investigator: Dr. Igor Maykiv

Foreign partner: Technical University of Moldova, Moldova

Duration: 2014 – 2015

Objectives: Development of methods for structural synthesis of universal modules with the reconfiguration possibility.

Main project results:

Method for structural synthesis of universal modules comprising functional analysis, structural synthesis and the search for a set of optimal solutions was developed on the basis of morphological analysis and synthesis. The proposed method combines lexicographical criterion advantages (L-criterion) for the selection of electronic components during functional analysis and absolute criterion of preference (optimality Pareto, π-criterion) during the search for a set of optimal solutions that are considered in scientific literature as alternative methods for finding optimal solutions. The combination of L- and π-criteria allows us to reduce the number of alternatives synthesized during structural synthesis. A formalized discrete optimization solution is versatile for a wide range of problems of optimal structural synthesis of computing systems.
A new universal module structure with improved functional properties was designed due to separate data processing and sharing as well as reconfiguration of hardware and software using Field Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs).

Abstract: New methods and algorithms for data encoding and transmitting using mathematical tools of modular arithmetic were developed, aimed at improving the performance of wireless multimedia sensor networks (WMSM). A Verilog – encoder model for noise-immune data encryption using modified correcting codes was designed.

Main results:

The method of adaptive coding and transmission of multimedia data based on modular arithmetic and multipath routing using adaptive distribution packages and their transfer from multipath routing, is developed, which provides the efficiency of the total bandwidth of wireless sensor networks.
The method of network data coding based on the Residue Number System (RNS), which provides reduction of data amount by 50%, including the retransmission of packages that are necessary for message recovery, was developed. The proposed method allows us to select relatively simple modules of various bit-widths, though the bit-width of residues transmitted through the common route is approximately equal to the bit-width of residues on specific routes. The developed method of network coding improves overall network bandwidth by about 60%.
A modified correcting code of Residue Number System was developed, which is characterized by the simplified procedure of check symbols formation, providing increased efficiency of encoding approximately in 5 times as compared with other correcting codes. Using modified correcting codes of RNS in wireless sensor networks allows us to improve the reliability and overall network bandwidth by reducing the number of retransmissions.

Objectives: test enhanced batch pattern parallel algorithm for NN training by changing the parameters of the internal algorithms of MPI collective functions on different parallel architectures;

develop GPU-based versions of the parallel batch and single pattern algorithms for NN training; test experimentally the efficiency of the improved GPU-based version of the algorithms in comparison with their Open MPI implementations.

Main results:

The parallelization efficiency of the neural network training algorithm on the example of the recirculation neural network model has been researched. The Open MPI, OpenMP and CUDA-based versions of the parallel batch pattern training algorithm for recirculation of neural network were implemented using C language. The parallelization efficiency of the developed algorithms has been researched on many-core parallel machine with 48 AMD Opteron 6180 SE processors, on computational cluster with 48 Intel Xeon E5520 processors, on 60-core Intel GPU Xeon Phi Coprocessor 5110P card and Nvidia Tesla C2050 GPU card using its 64 cores only (total is 1024). The experimental research of the developed algorithm using Open MPI technology showed the parallelization efficiency of 75% on 48 processors of the many-core system, 60% on 48 processors of the cluster, 70% on 60 processors of the Intel GPU Xeon Phi card. The experimental research of the developed algorithm using OpenMP technology showed lower figures, 40% of parallelization efficiency on 48 processors of the many-core system. The experimental research of the developed algorithm using CUDA technology showed 14-times speedup on one Nvidia Tesla GPU card. The developed algorithms are included to the developing library PaGaLiNNeT capable to speed-up scientific computations based on neural networks on general-purpose and hybrid (CPU+GPU) high performance computing systems.
The research project entitled “An Adaptive End-to-End Approach for Terabit Data Movement Optimization” was investigated. The goal of this project is to develop a novel architecture and related approaches to the end-to-end optimization of terabyte size data movement on next-generation networking and storage system technologies. The moving scientific data sets at terabits per second transfer rates over wide-area networks between geographically dispersed data centers were modeled. The set of events which describe a drop of the bandwidth in the communication network was obtained. A predictive model based on artificial neural networks to predict the duration of the event and the value of the maximum bandwidth drop was developed. I have used the developed library for parallel neural network training PaGaLiNNeT (developed by me within my previous project) and the model of a multi-layer perceptron. The experimental researches showed that the modeled events have stochastic nature and therefore it is necessary to tune the neural network model to provide desirable prediction results. This scientific collaboration with the host institution will be continued in the future.

Grant No FP7 MC IIF 221524 – 908524 according to the 7^th EU Frame Programme, Grant of Marie Curie for researches from the third countries (International Incoming Fellowships – IIF), return phase

Duration: 2011 – 2012

Objectives: development of the enhanced training methods for artificial neural networks in heterogeneous parallel computing systems within the Grid; providing the high efficiency of parallelization and development of the Grid-based library for parallel neural networks training.

Main results:

As a part of the project design three levels of grid-based library are created: (i) at the level of a single supercomputer / cluster homogeneous computing nodes, (ii) at the heterogeneous computing nodes within a cluster, (iii) at the grid of computing system with heterogeneous hosts and heterogeneous communication channels between them. A parallel version of the library for the level (i) was installed on parallel machines with ccNuma architecture. A strategy for resource brokering based on Pareto optimization [1] is implemented in C programming language and included in the library. The developed library for the level (i) which includes the routines for parallel training of multilayer perceptron [2] and recurrent neural network was used for the prediction of the stock price for financial markets. The results are published in [6]. A parallel version of the library for the level (ii) was developed and installed on the computing cluster of heterogeneous architectures. The resource brokering sub-routine based on Pareto optimization [1] is called from the code of resource broker separately before executing the main task. The performance analysis of computing nodes of the cluster is based on a modified BSP-based model with improved computational complexity of parallel training algorithm for multilayer perceptron [2]. The results are published in [5];
Within the application of parallel algorithms for neural network training to speed up the execution of practical tasks, an application task of convolution neural network for the detection of the number of micronucleus in the human lymphocytes is considered. The accurate detection of the number of micronucleus in the human lymphocytes can be used as biological dosimeter in order to relive the presence and the action of carcinogenic factors and could enhance the correctness of the final medical response. It was proven the application of convolution NN for the development of this task because this NN model provides good detection properties and showed good detection results of the more complicated task of human face detection. The human lymphocyte images were acquired by the image flow cytometer which causes the different types of noise that influence on the acquired image. We have tested the CNN for the images altered by a zoom factor. The CNN provides no false alarms for each zoom factor. The number of false negative detections is much lower in comparison with the pattern matching method, implemented as a LABVIEW routine (IMAQ Match Pattern method) inside the flow cytometer. The detection rate of 87.5% provided by the CNN is much higher than 25% of detection rate by the IMAQ Match Pattern method on the considered example images. The results are published in [3, 4].
