An important step in a multi-sensor surveillance system is to estimate sensor biases from their noisy asynchronous measurements. This estimation problem is computationally challenging due to the highly nonlinear transformation between the global and local coordinate systems as well as the measurement asynchrony from different sensors. In this paper, we propose a novel nonlinear least squares formulation for the problem by assuming the existence of a reference target moving with an (unknown) constant velocity. We also propose an efficient block coordinate decent (BCD) optimization algorithm, with a judicious initialization, to solve the problem. The proposed BCD algorithm alternately updates the range and azimuth bias estimates by solving linear least squares problems and semidefinite programs. In the absence of measurement noise, the proposed algorithm is guaranteed to find the global solution of the problem and the true biases. Simulation results show that the proposed algorithm significantly outperforms the existing approaches in terms of the root mean square error. 相似文献

We consider a Robbins-Monro type iteration wherein noisy measurements are event-driven and therefore arrive asynchronously. We propose a modification of step-sizes that ensures desired asymptotic behaviour regardless of this aspect. This generalizes earlier results on asynchronous stochastic approximation wherein the asynchronous behaviour is across different components, but not along the same component of the vector iteration, as is the case considered here. 相似文献

The directed acyclic graph (DAG) associated with a parallel algorithm captures the partial order in which separaT.L.cal computations are completed and how their outputs are subsequently used in further computations. Unlike in a synchronous parallel algorithm, the DAG associated with an asynchronous parallel algorithm is not predetermined. Instead, it is a product of the asynchronous timing dynamics of the machine and cannot be known in advance, as such it is best thought of as a pseudorandom variable. In this paper, we present a formalism for analyzing the performance of asynchronous parallel Jacobi’s method in terms of its DAG. We use this app.roach to prove error bounds and bounds on the rate of convergence. The rate of convergence bounds is based on the statistical properties of the DAG and is valid for systems with a non-negative iteration matrix. We supp.ort our theoretical results with a suit of numerical examples, where we compare the performance of synchronous and asynchronous parallel Jacobi to certain statistical properties of the DAGs associated with the computations. We also present some examples of small matrices with elements of mixed sign, which demonstrate that determining whether a system will converge under asynchronous iteration in this more general setting is a far more difficult problem. 相似文献

We show that the set of prefix decidable superwords is closed under finite automata and asynchronous automata transformations. We prove that structures of degrees of finite automata and asynchronous automata transformations contain an atom which consists of prefix decidable superwords with undecidable monadic theory (or undecidable by Buchi). Also we prove that the structure of degrees of asynchronous automata transformations contains an atom which consists of superwords with decidable monadic theory (decidable by Buchi). 相似文献

We extend the idea of asynchronous iterations to self-mappings of product spaces with infinitely many components. In addition to giving a rather general convergence theorem we study in some detail the case of isotone and isotonically decomposable mappings in partially ordered spaces. In particular, we obtain relationships between asynchronous iterations and the total step method and results on enclosures for fixed points. They appear to be new, even for mappings defined on a product space with only finitely many components. 相似文献

We study the numerical behaviours of the relaxed asynchronous multisplitting methods for the linear complementarity problems by solving some typical problems from practical applications on a real multiprocessor system. Numerical results show that the parallel multisplitting relaxation methods always perform much better than the corresponding sequential alternatives, and that the asynchronous multisplitting relaxation methods often outperform their corresponding synchronous counterparts. Moreover, the two-sweep relaxed multisplitting methods have better convergence properties than their corresponding one-sweep relaxed ones in the sense that they have larger convergence domains and faster convergence speeds. Hence, the asynchronous multisplitting unsymmetric relaxation iterations should be the methods of choice for solving the large sparse linear complementarity problems in the parallel computing environments. 相似文献

We find some sufficient conditions on the local coordinate system of a Carnot–Carathéodory space of low smoothness that ensure Gromov-type estimates on the divergence of local (quasi)metrics. We also obtain these estimates for the canonical coordinate system of the second kind and various mixed coordinate systems. 相似文献

We analyze the convergence rate of an asynchronous space decomposition method for constrained convex minimization in a reflexive Banach space. This method includes as special cases parallel domain decomposition methods and multigrid methods for solving elliptic partial differential equations. In particular, the method generalizes the additive Schwarz domain decomposition methods to allow for asynchronous updates. It also generalizes the BPX multigrid method to allow for use as solvers instead of as preconditioners, possibly with asynchronous updates, and is applicable to nonlinear problems. Applications to an overlapping domain decomposition for obstacle problems are also studied. The method of this work is also closely related to relaxation methods for nonlinear network flow. Accordingly, we specialize our convergence rate results to the above methods. The asynchronous method is implementable in a multiprocessor system, allowing for communication and computation delays among the processors.

We develop parallel asynchronous implementations of some known and some new label-correcting methods for finding a shortest path from a single origin to all the other nodes of a directed graph. We compare these implementations on a shared-memory multiprocessor, the Alliant FX/80, using several types of randomly generated problems. Excellent (sometimes superlinear) speedup is achieved with some of the methods, and it is found that the asynchronous versions of these methods are substantially faster than their synchronous counterparts.The authors acknowledge the director and the staff of CERFACS, Toulouse, France for the use of the Alliant FX/80.This research was supported by the National Science Foundation under Grants 9108058-CCR, 9221293-INT, and 9300494-DMI. 相似文献

A major problem in achieving significant speed-up on parallel machines is the overhead involved with synchronizing the concurrent processes. Removing the synchronization constraint has the potential of speeding up the computation, while maintaining greater computation flexibility (e.g. differences in processors speed; differences in the data input to processors). We construct asynchronous (AS) finite difference schemes for the solution of PDEs by removing the synchronization constraint. We analyze the numerical properties of these schemes. Based on the analysis, we develop corrected-asynchronous (CA) finite difference schemes which are specifically constructed for an asynchronous processing. We present asynchronous (AS) and corrected-asynchronous (CA) finite difference schemes for the multi-dimensional heat equation. Although our discussion concentrates on the Euler scheme it should serve only as a sample, as it can be extended to other schemes and other PDEs.These schemes are implemented on the shared-memory multi-userSequent Balance machine. Numerical results for one and two dimensional problems are presented. It is shown experimentally that synchronization penalty can be about 50% of run time: in most cases, the asynchronous scheme runs twice as fast as the parallel synchronous scheme. In general, the efficiency of the parallel schemes increases with processor load, with the time-level, and with the problem dimension. The efficiency of the AS may reach 90% and over, but it provides accurate results only for steady-state values. The CA, on the other hand, is less efficient but provides more accurate results for intermediate (non steady-state) values. The results show the potential of developing asynchronous finite deference schemes for steady-state as well as non steadystate problems.This research was partially supported by a grant from The Basic Research Foundation administrated by The Israel Academy of Sciences and Humanities.A reduced version of the paper was presented at the 4th SIAM Conference on Parallel Processing for Scientific Computing, Dec. 11–13, 1989, Chicago, USA.The work by this author was supported by research grant 337 of the Israeli National Council for Research and Development in the years 1990–1991.This research was supported by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration under NASA Contract No. NASI-18107 while the author was in residence at the Institute for Computer Applications in Sciences and Engineering (ICASE), NASA Langley Research Center, Hampton, VA 23665, USA. 相似文献

We study and compare asynchronous parallelization strategies for tabu search, and evaluate the impact on performance and solution quality of some important algorithmic design parameters: number of processors, handling of exchanged information, etc. Parallelization approaches are implemented and compared by using a tabu search algorithm for multicommodity location-allocation problems with balancing requirements. 相似文献

The dynamics of two planar elastic pendula mounted on the horizontally excited platform have been studied. We give evidence that the pendula can exhibit synchronous oscillatory and rotation motion and show that stable in-phase and anti-phase synchronous states always co-exist. The complete bifurcational scenario leading from synchronous to asynchronous motion is shown. We argue that our results are robust as they exist in the wide range of the system parameters. 相似文献
