Item Open Access Automatic code optimization using graph neural networks(2023-01) Peker, MelihCompilers provide hundreds of optimization options, and choosing a good optimization sequence is a complex and time-consuming task. It requires extensive effort and expert input to select a good set of optimization flags. Therefore, there is a lot of research focused on finding optimizations automatically. While most of this research considers using static, spatial, or dynamic features, some of the latest research directly applied deep neural networks on source code. We combined the static features, spatial features, and deep neural networks by rep-resenting source code as graphs and trained Graph Neural Network (GNN) for automatically finding suitable optimization flags. We chose eight binary optimization flags and two benchmark suites, Polybench and cBench. We created a dataset of 12000 graphs using 256 optimization flag combinations on 47 benchmarks. We trained and tested our model using these benchmarks, and our results show that we can achieve a maximum of 48.6%speed-up compared to the case where all optimization flags are enabled.Item Open Access On LDPC codes for Gaussian interference channels(IEEE, 2014) Sharifi, S.; Tanç, A. K.; Duman, Tolga M.In this paper, we focus on the two-user Gaussian interference channel (GIC), and study the Han-Kobayashi (HK) coding/decoding strategy with the objective of designing low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes. A code optimization algorithm is proposed which adopts a random perturbation technique via tracking the average mutual information. The degree distribution optimization and convergence threshold computation are carried out for strong and weak interference channels, employing binary phase-shift keying (BPSK). Under strong interference, it is observed that optimized codes operate close to the capacity boundary. For the case of weak interference, it is shown that via the newly designed codes, a nontrivial rate pair is achievable, which is not attainable by single user codes with time-sharing. Performance of the designed LDPC codes are also studied for finite block lengths through simulations of specific codes picked from the optimized degree distributions.
