Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Know and understand selected advanced numerical high performance algorithms for very large problems in computational science as well as in computational data science, machine learning and deep learning. Understand the interdependencies between algorithm, problem data, implementation of the algorithm, hardware, performance and accuracy. Understand basic techniques for analysis, implementation and optimization of numerical high performance algorithms. Implement and evaluate your own implementations of selected algorithms. To some extent it may be possible to accomodate for special interests of the students in class.

PLEASE NOTE: It is currently planned to hold the course on-site (in presence).

Assessment and permitted materials

One homework exercise (with theoretical and practical components - implementation, experimentation, analysis) and an individual semester project (involving literature research, implementation, experimentation, analysis), whose results will be presented in class and documented in written form (presentation slides, short project report).

Minimum requirements and assessment criteria

The maximum possible score is 100 points: 25 for the homework exercise, 25 for a project progress report (presentation) in late November, 50 for the semester project (25 for the presentation, 25 for the report). At least 50 points are required for passing the course. Moreover, at least half of the available points for the semester project have to be achieved for passing the course.

Attendance of classes is in general strongly recommended. Attendance is required for the following classes: discussion of the homework exercise, project progress report (28.11.2024), project presentations (second half of January 2025).

Examination topics

There is no separate exam. Grading takes into account the components mentioned above (homework, project progress report, semester project) as well as the participation in class.

Reading list

Slides presented in class, literature references given on the slides.

Demmel: Applied Numerical Linear Algebra
Golub & van Loan: Matrix Computations
