Fast and Scalable Mixed Precision Euclidean Distance Calculations Using GPU Tensor Cores
Brian Curless, Michael Gowanlock
Modern GPUs are equipped with tensor cores (TCs) that are commonly used for matrix multiplication in artificial intelligence workloads. However, because they have high computationa…
Removing Aliases in Time-Series Photometry
Daniel Kramer, Michael Gowanlock, David Trilling +2
Ground-based, all-sky astronomical surveys are imposed with an inevitable day-night cadence that can introduce aliases in period-finding methods. We examined four different methods…
The Solar System Notification Alert Processing System (SNAPS): Design, Architecture, and First Data Release (SNAPShot1)
David E. Trilling, Michael Gowanlock, Daniel Kramer +4
We present here the design, architecture, and first data release for the Solar System Notification Alert Processing System (SNAPS). SNAPS is a Solar System broker that ingests aler…
Leveraging GPU Tensor Cores for Double Precision Euclidean Distance Calculations
Benoit Gallet, Michael Gowanlock
Tensor cores (TCs) are a type of Application-Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC) and are a recent addition to Graphics Processing Unit (GPU) architectures. As such, TCs are purposef…
GPU-Enabled Searches for Periodic Signals of Unknown Shape
Michael Gowanlock, Nathaniel R. Butler, David E. Trilling +1
Recent and future generation observatories will enable the study of variable astronomical phenomena through their time-domain capabilities. High temporal fidelity will allow for un…
Fast Period Searches Using the Lomb-Scargle Algorithm on Graphics Processing Units for Large Datasets and Real-Time Applications
Michael Gowanlock, Daniel Kramer, David E. Trilling +2
Computing the periods of variable objects is well-known to be computationally expensive. Modern astronomical catalogs contain a significant number of observed objects. Therefore, e…
The Breakthrough Listen Search For Intelligent Life Near the Galactic Center I
Vishal Gajjar, Karen I. Perez, Andrew P. V. Siemion +23
A line-of-sight towards the Galactic Center (GC) offers the largest number of potentially habitable systems of any direction in the sky. The Breakthrough Listen program is undertak…
Hybrid KNN-Join: Parallel Nearest Neighbor Searches Exploiting CPU and GPU Architectural Features
Michael Gowanlock
K Nearest Neighbor (KNN) joins are used in scientific domains for data analysis, and are building blocks of several well-known algorithms. KNN-joins find the KNN of all points in a…
GPU Accelerated Similarity Self-Join for Multi-Dimensional Data
Michael Gowanlock, Ben Karsin
The self-join finds all objects in a dataset that are within a search distance, epsilon, of each other; therefore, the self-join is a building block of many algorithms. We advance…
GPU Accelerated Self-join for the Distance Similarity Metric
Michael Gowanlock, Ben Karsin
The self-join finds all objects in a dataset within a threshold of each other defined by a similarity metric. As such, the self-join is a building block for the field of databases…
The Habitability of our Evolving Galaxy
Michael G. Gowanlock, Ian S. Morrison
The notion of a Galactic Habitable Zone (GHZ), or regions of the Milky Way galaxy that preferentially maintain the conditions to sustain complex life, has recently gained attention…
Super-resolution Full Polarimetric Imaging for Radio Interferometry with Sparse Modeling
Kazunori Akiyama, Shiro Ikeda, Mollie Pleau +9
We propose a new technique for radio interferometry to obtain super-resolution full polarization images in all four Stokes parameters using sparse modeling. The proposed technique…
Computer Aided Detection of Transient Inflation Events at Alaskan Volcanoes using GPS Measurements from 2005-2015
Justin D Li, Cody M Rude, David M Blair +3
Analysis of transient deformation events in time series data observed via networks of continuous Global Positioning System (GPS) ground stations provide insight into the magmatic a…
Astrobiological Effects of Gamma-Ray Bursts in the Milky Way Galaxy
Michael G. Gowanlock
A planet having protective ozone within the collimated beam of a Gamma Ray Burst (GRB) may suffer ozone depletion, potentially causing a mass extinction event to existing life on a…
