Time Complexity Parallel Local Binary Pattern Feature Extractor on a Graphical Processing Unit
ICIC Express Letters ICIC International ⃝c 2019 ISSN 1881-803X Volume 13, Number 9, September 2019 pp. 867{874 θ(1) TIME COMPLEXITY PARALLEL LOCAL BINARY PATTERN FEATURE EXTRACTOR ON A GRAPHICAL PROCESSING UNIT Ashwath Rao Badanidiyoor and Gopalakrishna Kini Naravi Department of Computer Science and Engineering Manipal Institute of Technology Manipal Academy of Higher Education Manipal, Karnataka 576104, India f ashwath.rao; ng.kini [email protected] Received February 2019; accepted May 2019 Abstract. Local Binary Pattern (LBP) feature is used widely as a texture feature in object recognition, face recognition, real-time recognitions, etc. in an image. LBP feature extraction time is crucial in many real-time applications. To accelerate feature extrac- tion time, in many previous works researchers have used CPU-GPU combination. In this work, we provide a θ(1) time complexity implementation for determining the Local Binary Pattern (LBP) features of an image. This is possible by employing the full capa- bility of a GPU. The implementation is tested on LISS medical images. Keywords: Local binary pattern, Medical image processing, Parallel algorithms, Graph- ical processing unit, CUDA 1. Introduction. Local binary pattern is a visual descriptor proposed in 1990 by Wang and He [1, 2]. Local binary pattern provides a distribution of intensity around a center pixel. It is a non-parametric visual descriptor helpful in describing a distribution around a center value. Since digital images are distributions of intensity, it is helpful in describing an image. The pattern is widely used in texture analysis, object recognition, and image description. The local binary pattern is used widely in real-time description, and analysis of objects in images and videos, owing to its computational efficiency and computational simplicity. -

Energy-Aware Resource Management for Heterogeneous Systems
FACULDADE DE ENGENHARIA DA UNIVERSIDADE DO PORTO Energy-aware resource management for heterogeneous systems Eduardo Fernandes Mestrado Integrado em Engenharia Informática e Computação Supervisor: Jorge Barbosa July 7, 2016 Energy-aware resource management for heterogeneous systems Eduardo Fernandes Mestrado Integrado em Engenharia Informática e Computação July 7, 2016 Abstract Nowadays computers, be they personal or a node contained in a multi machine environment, can contain different kinds of processing units. A common example is the personal computer that nowadays always includes a CPU and a GPU, both capable of executing code, sometimes even in the same integrated circuit package. These are the so called heterogeneous systems. It’s important to be aware that the various processing units aren’t equal, for instance CPUs are very different from GPUs. This raises a problem, since not every task can be executed in all processing units. To solve this problem a new task scheduling algorithm was developed with the aid of SimDag from the SimGrid toolkit. This algorithm uses a DAG (directed acyclic graph) to aid the scheduling of different tasks, be they from a single application or from various different applications. The algorithm is based on the HEFT scheduling algorithm, a greedy algorithm with a short execution time, developed by Topcuoglu et al. This new algorithm is aware of the different pro- cessing units and of the different performance/power levels. This solves the problem of not all tasks being able to be executed in all processing units. Since previous studies show that reducing the CPU clock speed on DVFS (dynamic voltage frequency scaling) CPUs can reduce the energy spent by the CPU while executing various tasks with little increase in runtime. -
