Abstract

BioSig is an open source software library for biomedical signal processing. Most users in the field are using Matlab; however, significant effort was undertaken to provide compatibility to Octave, too. This effort has been widely successful, only some non-critical components relying on a graphical user interface are missing. Now, installing BioSig on Octave is as easy as on Matlab. Moreover, a benchmark test based on BioSig has been developed and the benchmark results of several platforms are presented.

Ozaki Scheme II: A GEMM-oriented emulation of floating-point matrix multiplication using an integer modular technique

This paper addresses emulation algorithms for matrix multiplication. General Matrix-Matrix Multiplication (GEMM), a fundamental operation in the Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms (BLAS), is typically optimized for specific hardware architectures. The Ozaki scheme is a well-established GEMM-based emulation method for matrix multiplication, wherein input matrices are decomposed into several low-precision components to ensure that the resulting matrix product is computed exactly through numerical operations. This study proposes a novel GEMM-based emulation method for matrix multiplication that leverages the Chinese Remainder Theorem. The proposed method inherits the computational efficiency of highly optimized GEMM routines and further enables control over the number of matrix multiplications, which can enhance computational accuracy. We present numerical experiments featuring INT8 Tensor Core operations on GPUs and FP64 arithmetic on CPUs as case studies. The results demonstrate that FP64 emulation using the proposed method achieves performance levels of up to 7.4 to 9.8 TFLOPS on the NVIDIA RTX 4090 and 56.6 to 80.2 TFLOPS on the NVIDIA GH200, exceeding the measured performance of native FP64 arithmetic. Furthermore, for FP64 computations on CPUs, the proposed method achieved up to a 2.3x speedup in emulating quadruple-precision arithmetic compared to the conventional Ozaki scheme.

Eigensolvers for polynomial roots and tensor decomposition

Computing eigenvalues and eigenvectors is at the heart of the solution of many non-linear problems. For instance, finding the roots of polynomial systems reduces to computing joint eigenvectors of operators of multiplication. Similarly, tensor decomposition can be performed via the joint diagonalization of submatrices of the Catalecticant of the tensor. We describe and illustrate symbolic-numeric methods for computing the solutions of these algebraic problems from the computation of joint eigenvectors of commuting operators, and for analysing their multiplicity structure, as well as their implementation in the package AlgebraicSolvers.jl.

The Art of Closed-Formula Defaults: Search-Free Code Generation for Tensor Operators

Agentic search and automated optimization of GPU kernels are powerful tools for large language model inference. Their effectiveness, however, depends not on the sophistication of the search itself, but on the clarity of the optimization problem being solved. We provide an application-first approach that drives a hierarchical code generation tool from operator specifi cation down to GPU instructions, and show that a clearly defined computational model makes the optimization problem tractable.
