Revisionist Integral Deferred Correction with Adaptive Stepsize Control

Andrew J. Christlieb, Colin B. Macdonald, Benjamin W. Ong et al.

Adaptive stepsize control is a critical feature for the robust and efficient numerical solution of initial-value problems in ordinary differential equations. In this paper, we show that adaptive stepsize control can be incorporated within a family of parallel time integrators known as Revisionist Integral Deferred Correction (RIDC) methods. The RIDC framework allows for various strategies to implement stepsize control, and we report results from exploring a few of them.

Pipeline Implementations of Neumann-Neumann and Dirichlet-Neumann Waveform Relaxation Methods

Benjamin W. Ong, Bankim C. Mandal

This paper is concerned with the reformulation of Neumann-Neumann Waveform Relaxation (NNWR) methods and Dirichlet-Neumann Waveform Relaxation (DNWR) methods, a family of parallel space-time approaches to solving time-dependent PDEs. By changing the order of the operations, pipeline-parallel computation of the waveform iterates are possible without changing the final solution. The parallel efficiency and the increased communication cost of the pipeline implementation is presented, along with weak scaling studies to show the effectiveness of the pipeline NNWR and DNWR algorithms.

An Incremental Non-Linear Manifold Approximation Method

Praveen T. W. Hettige, Benjamin W. Ong

Analyzing high-dimensional data presents challenges due to the "curse of dimensionality'', making computations intensive. Dimension reduction techniques, categorized as linear or non-linear, simplify such data. Non-linear methods are particularly essential for efficiently visualizing and processing complex data structures in interactive and graphical applications. This research develops an incremental non-linear dimension reduction method using the Geometric Multi-Resolution Analysis (GMRA) framework for streaming data. The proposed method enables real-time data analysis and visualization by incrementally updating the cluster map, PCA basis vectors, and wavelet coefficients. Numerical experiments show that the incremental GMRA accurately represents non-linear manifolds even with small initial samples and aligns closely with batch GMRA, demonstrating efficient updates and maintaining the multiscale structure. The findings highlight the potential of Incremental GMRA for real-time visualization and interactive graphics applications that require adaptive high-dimensional data representations.
