Voxels are cells on a 3D regular grid. Voxel-based scenes have many applications, including frequent use in simulations or games. Over the years, the field of high-resolution voxel scenes has progressed significantly, allowing for compressing and real-time editing of high-resolution scenes. This possibility of editing high-resolution scenes led...

Over the past 20 years, the cost of sequencing genomes has reduced drastically. As DNA data grows at an unprecedented rate, the need for fast and affordable software and hardware solutions for DNA analysis is higher than ever. A critical and time-consuming component in any DNA analysis pipeline is sequence alignment, which refers to mapping...

Large­scale machine learning frameworks can accelerate training of a neural network by per­ forming distributed training on a cluster using multiple GPUs per node and multiple nodes. Because distributed training on a cluster involves many nodes which need to communicate and load and exchange data, a machine learning framework may at certain...

The continued development of improved algorithms and architecture for numerical simulations is at the core of increased computational performance and, therefore, the ability to perform more complex and precise numerical simulations in less time in areas such as Computational Fluid Dynamics. Employing faster algorithms on more efficient...

In the past 15 years the field of general purpose computing on graphics processing units, or GPUs, has become well developed and the practice is becoming more mainstream. Computational demands of simulation software are continuously increasing. As such for many applications traditionally computed on the central processing unit the question...

Space mission complexity is constantly increasing, therefore there is a growing demand for highly accurate and fast trajectory design and simulation tools. Some astrodynamics applications, such as planetary protection simulations, require millions of total simulated years to quantify certain probabilities with a high confidence level. It is...

Third generation sequencing machines produce reads with tens of thousands of base pairs.<br/>To perform de novo assembly, all reads must be compared with every other read to find overlaps.<br/>Finding overlaps with the optimal Smith-Waterman is not feasible, since the complexity of Smith-Waterman is quadratic with the length of the reads.<br/...

Pavlovian eyeblink conditioning is a powerful experiment used in the field of neuroscience to measure multiple aspects of how we learn in our daily life. To track the movement of the eyelid during an experiment, researchers traditionally made use of potentiometers or electromyography (EMG). More recently, the use of computer vision and image...

Adaptive Optics (AO) play an essential role in the field of astronomical seeing for ground-based telescopes, providing a corrected image from the disturbance caused by the light having to travel through the turbulent atmosphere of our Earth. To provide us with more detailed images, the sizes of these telescopes are getting increasingly larger....

Segmentation and annotation of tumors in CT scans of the brain is a cumbersome time-consuming task for medical experts. Carefully annotated data can be used to build training data sets for machine learning frameworks, with the ultimate goal to fully automate this process. This thesis focuses on acceleration of the annotation process by...

Numerical integration methods such as the Fourier-based COS method can be used for effciently and accurately pricing financial products. The COS method can be applied to options on one underlying stock as well as on multiple underlying stocks. However, this method suffers from an exponential increase in computational complexity as the dimensions...

Using the histogram procedure, this work studies performance determining factors in computing in parallel on SIMD and SIMT devices. Modern graphics pro-cessing units (GPUs) support SIMT, multiple threads running the same instruction, whereas central processing units (CPUs) use SIMD, in which one instruction op-erates on multiple operands. As...

Detecting similarities between (RNA, DNA, and protein) sequences is an important part of bioinformatics. Among the algorithms used to accomplish this, the Smith-Waterman algorithm is very popular. A sequential implementation of Smith-Waterman requires quadratic running time with respect to the length of the sequences. As the amount of data in...

Mittal, A. (author)
The project focuses on developing a simulator in which ships and waves interact. The new wave model is the Variational Boussinesq model (VBM). However, this new realistic model brings much more computation effort with it. The VBM mainly requires an unsteady state solver, that solves a coupled system of equations at each frame (20 fps) . The...

In recent years the study of complex systems gained prominence. Since it is usually difficult to use classical mathematic models to understand these systems, scientists and engineers have to resort to simulations. Currently programming languages like CUDA C and OpenCL are available to run large scale simulations on a GPU architecture....

The Maritime Research Institute Netherlands (MARIN) supplies innovative products for the offshore industry and shipping companies. Among their products are highly realistic real-time bridge simulators. Currently, the waves are deterministic and are not affected by ships, moles, breakwaters, piers, or any other object. To bring the simulators to...
