Accelerating radio transient detection using the Bispectrum algorithm and GPGPU by Lin, Tsu-Shiuan

“…In this thesis, we present a number of modified implementations of the bispectrum algorithm, allowing both instruction-level and data-level parallelism. Firstly, a multi-threaded CPU version is developed in C++ using OpenMP and then compared to a GPU version developed using Compute Unified Device Architecture (CUDA).In order to verify validity of the implementations presented, the implementations were firstly run on simulated data created from MeqTrees: a tool for simulating transients developed by the SKA. …”

Short-term wind power forecasting using artificial neural networks-based ensemble model by Chen,Qin

“…The advantages of input features, model parameters, and spatial correlation and ensemble techniques were combined to form an ANN-based ensemble model to further enhance the forecasting performance from an individual ANN model. The simulation results show that all the available meteorological variables have different levels of impact on forecasting performance. …”
