GLAME@lab: An M-script API for Linear Algebra Operations on Graphics Processors
Departament d' Enginyeria i Ciència dels Computadors, Universitat Jaume I (2008-02)We propose two high-level application programming interfaces (APIs) to use a graphics processing unit (GPU) as a coprocessor for dense linear algebra operations. Combined with an extension of the FLAME API and an ... -
Solving Dense Linear Systems on Graphics Processors
Departament d' Enginyeria i Ciència dels Computadors, Universitat Jaume I (2008-02)We present several algorithms to compute the solution of a linear system of equations on a GPU, as well as general techniques to improve their performance, such as padding and hybrid GPU-CPU computation. We also show how ... -
Adding camera functions to the Webots OPEN-R wrapper object for Aibo robots
Departament d' Enginyeria i Ciència dels Computadors, Universitat Jaume I (2008-05)We use the Webots TM mobile robot simulation software for testing controllers and for using a common interface for all our robotic platforms. In the case of the Aibo TM robots we use cross-compilation to combine the Webots ... -
Out-of-Core Solution of Linear Systems on Graphic Processors
Departament d' Enginyeria i Ciència dels Computadors, Universitat Jaume I (2008-05)We combine two high-level application programming interfaces to solve large-scale linear systems with the data stored on disk using current graphics processors. The result is a simple yet powerful tool that enables a ... -
Blocked algorithms for the reduction to Hessenberg-triangular form revisited
Springer (2008-09)We present two variants of Moler and Stewart’s algorithm for reducing a matrix pair to Hessenberg-triangular (HT) form with increased data locality in the access to the matrices. In one of these variants, a careful ... -
Combining Multiple Classifiers with Dynamic Weighted Voting
Springer Berlin Heidelberg (2009)When a multiple classifier system is employed, one of the most popular methods to accomplish the classifier fusion is the simple majority voting. However, when the performance of the ensemble members is not uniform, the ... -
Toward the parallelization of GSL
Springer-Verlag (2009)In this paper, we present our joint efforts to design and develop parallel implementations of the GNU Scientific Library for a wide variety of parallel platforms. The multilevel software architecture proposed provides ... -
The neuroscience of vision-based grasping: a functional review for computational modeling and bio-inspired robotics
Imperial College Press (2009)The topic of vision-based grasping is being widely studied using various techniques and with different goals in humans and in other primates. The fundamental related findings are reviewed in this paper, with the aim of ... -
XTaGe: a flexible generation system for complex XML collections
Springer Verlag (Germany) (2009)We introduce XTaGe (XML Tester and Generator), a system for the synthesis of XML collections meant for testing and micro benchmarking applications. In contrast with existing approaches, XTaGe focuses on complex collections, ... -
Visual control of robots with delayed images
Brill (2009)This research develops a control scheme for visual servoing that explicitly takes into account the delay in- troduced by image acquisition and processing. For this purpose, a predictor block, i.e., an estimator that predicts ... -
Color image registration under illumination changes
Springer Verlag (Germany) (2009)The estimation of parametric global motion has had a significant attention during the last two decades, but despite the great efforts invested, there are still open issues. One of the most important ones is related to ... -
Generalized least squares-based parametric motion estimation
Elsevier (2009)The estimation of parametric global motion had a significant attention during the last two decades, but despite the great efforts invested, there are still open issues. The most important ones are related to the accuracy ... -
