  • Three dimensional Monte Carlo simulator with parallel multigrid poisson solver

    Creator:
    Sandalci, Can K.
    Abstract:
    We present the results of embedding a multigrid solver for Poisson's equation into the parallel 3D Monte Carlo device simulator, PMC-3D. First we compare the sequential multigrid implementation to the sequential Successive Overrelaxation (SOR) Monte Carlo code used previously in PMC-3D. Depending on the convergence threshold, we obtain significant speedups...

  • Evaluation of Parallel Monte Carlo Tree Search Algorithms in Python

    Creator:
    Jothi, Shankar
    Abstract:
    Monte-Carlo Tree Search (MCTS) is an online-planning algorithm for decision-theoretic planning in domains with stochastic and combinatorial structure. The general applicability of MCTS makes it an ideal first choice to investigate when developing planners for complex applications requiring automated control and planning. The first contribution of this thesis is to...

  • Monte Carlo Tree Search with Fixed and Adaptive Abstractions

    Creator:
    Hostetler, Jesse A.
    Abstract:
    Monte Carlo tree search (MCTS) is a class of online planning algorithms for Markov decision processes (MDPs) and related models that has found success in challenging applications. In the online planning approach, the agent makes a decision in the current state by performing a limited forward search over possible futures...

  • Hierarchical graphical models for activity recognition in videos

    Creator:
    Amer, Mohamed R.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation addresses the problem of recognizing human activities in videos. Our focus is on activities with stochastic structure, where the activities are characterized by variable space-time arrangements of actions, and conducted by a variable number of actors. These activities occur frequently in sports and surveillance videos. They may appear...

  • Hybrid classical-quantum dose computation method for radiation therapy treatment planning

    Creator:
    Colburn, Gabriel G.
    Abstract:
    Radiation therapy treatment planning and optimization requires accurate, precise, and fast computation of absorbed dose to all critical and target volumes in a patient. A new method for speeding up the computational costs of Monte Carlo dose calculations is described that employs a hybrid classical-quantum computing architecture. Representative results are...

  • Monte Carlo device modeling applications on parallel computers

    Creator:
    Pennathur, Shankar S.
    Abstract:
    One of the ways of countering the ever increasing computational requirements in the simulation and modeling of electrical and electromagnetic devices and phenomena, is the development of simulation and modeling tools on parallel computing platforms. In this thesis, a previously developed Monte Carlo parallel device simulator is utilized, enhanced, and...

  • Cluster partitioning approaches to parallel Monte Carlo simulation on multiprocessors

    Creator:
    Ranawake, Udaya A.
    Abstract:
    We consider the parallelization of Monte Carlo algorithms for analyzing numerical models of charge transport used in semiconductor device physics. Parallel algorithms for the standard k-space Monte Carlo simulation of a three band model of bulk GaAs on hypercube multicomputers are first presented. This Monte Carlo model includes scattering due...

    Abstract:
    The parallelization and vectorization of Monte Carlo algorithms for modelling charge transport in semiconductor devices are considered. The standard ensemble Monte Carlo simulation of a three parabolic band model for GaAs is first presented as partial verification of the simulation. The model includes scattering due to acoustic, polar-optical and intervalley...
